Erik Aschenbrand is professor for International Nature conservation and UNESCO biosphere reserves at Eberswalde University for Sustainable Development. Erik has extensive experience in the management of protected areas - he led a department of the Middle Elbe Biosphere Reserve, served the Reinhardswald Nature Park as executive director, and worked as a tourism and regional development staff member at the Bavarian Forest National Park. In TRANSECTS, Erik is co-applicant and enthusiastic promoter of the project, as it provides meaningful exchange not only for students but also for practitioners from biosphere reserves, thus contributing substantially to the idea of a World network of UNESCO Biosphere Reserves.
