A project to provide a rapid effectiveness assessment was conducted by WWF in cooperation with the FBiH Ministry of Environment and Tourism in 2009 using international rapid assessment and prioritization of protected area management (RAPPAM) methodology. There is, however, room for consideration and development of additional regulations on economic instruments for protected areas in both entities. As a result of the existing level of decentralization, the entire system of information and reporting on protected areas in the country, including reporting on international obligations, is generally failing. Obligations for protected areas are dispersed throughout a number of agencies, according to the governance system in each entity.
