Step 5: Assessment of management interventions

At the end of each management cycle we assess all the management parameters together, according to the goals and objectives set, the impact on the socio-ecological system and the forced changes, and we re-evaluate our methods’ efficiency and effectiveness, review the cumulative results of our management and, if necessary, revise our goals, methods and planning for the next management session. According to our conclusions, and based on the changes suggested in the management decisions for the next period, i.e. management planning (Step 3), we set up the annual workplan for the next year.
