Passage West www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST What is this presentation about? Developing a Biodiversity Action plan that can feed into a 5-year Town And Village Renewal Plan for Passage West. Why is this happening? As part of a dynamic community led strategic planning process that is being facilitated by SECAD Partnership in conjunction with Cork County Council and the communities of Passage West and Carrigtwohill. To develop a five year Strategic Action Plan based on inputs from people living in the community, people working in the community, people providing volunteer and community based services and people that are providing services to the communities such as Cork County Council and education, health and other service providers. www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST How can people participate in the overall Town and Village Renewal Plan for Passage West? SECAD and Cork County Council would like to hear from anyone and everyone that is interested, from young to old, from those born and raised in Passage West or Carrigtwohill and those that have made it their home. Thus we are aiming to capture a ‘holistic view’ of what the people of Passage West and Carrigtwohill would like their communities to look like and be like in the future. We will be running other community consultation sessions like the one this presentation was produced for. Details of further events will be advertised in your community For any specific queries in relation to the Town and Village Renewal Plan please contact SECAD directly at: Phone 021 4613432 Email [email protected] www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST AND NOW FOR BIODIVERSITY… www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST TOWN AND VILLAGE RENEWAL BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN: THEMES FOR YOU TO CONSIDER public biodiversity neglected / /managed hot spots your space derelict space places MARITIME HERITAGE NEW COMMUNITIES www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST TOWN AND VILLAGE RENEWAL BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN THEMES This Biodiversity Plan will be about helping biodiversity but also about helping people. www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST PAST AND PRESENT You can explore maps of Passage West in the past and present on the Ordnance Survey website. http://map.geohive.ie/mapviewer.html www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST MARITIME HERITAGE www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST FUTURE This image comes from the Ballincolling- Carrigaline District Local Area Plans 2017 -2020.

But what does that mean? www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST What is Biodiversity? A shorthand way of saying ‘biological diversity’. But what does that mean? A simple way to describe ‘biological diversity’ is to say it means all the different types and individuals of living things on the planet, the places they live and the ways they live with each other. www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST What is Biodiversity? An even simpler way to describe ‘Biodiversity’ might be: ‘Nature’! www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST Why do we need Biodiversity Action Plans ? • 1950s- It is noticed that the way people live on the planet is damaging other species and the places those species need to live. It is realised that this damage is also a problem for people. www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST Why do we need Biodiversity Action Plans ? • 1980s- Under the United Nations, people across the planet decide to take action to protect all species, the places they live and the ways they live together. www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST Why do we need Biodiversity Action Plans ? • 1992- Ireland is one of 168 parties that sign up to the Convention on Biological Diversity which is designed to make sure that: Biodiversity is protected. Biodiversity is kept safe for future generations. The benefits of Biodiversity are shared equally. The idea of preparing Biodiversity Action Plans comes from the Convention on Biological Diversity. www.wildwork.ie/ www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST Why do we need Biodiversity Action Plans ? • 2002- Ireland makes its first National Biodiversity Action Plan. This plan says that Local Authorities, like Cork County Council, need to prepare Biodiversity Action Plans too. 2009-The first Biodiversity Action Plan for County Cork is published. The Cork County Biodiversity Action Plan says that, to make sure the plan works, lots of organisations and people need to get involved. www.wildwork.ie www.facebook.com/wildworkers [email protected] PASSAGE WEST Can you see biodiversity here?
