We represent the interests of the environment in the relevant proceedings, i.e. we endeavour to protect the diversity, character and beauty of the Tyrol’s natural and cultural landscape in the framework of official approval procedures. Our aim is not to reject every proposal submitted but simply to ensure observance of the relevant laws.
The Environmental Ombudsman also initiates and supports projects in the field of nature conservation.
We are always pleased to answer general questions relating to nature and environmental protection.
Yes, please communicate the matter to us in writing in our contact form or via e-mail. Make sure you provide all the necessary details (e.g. location, type and extent of the problem) needed for us to investigate.
We are not really against anything; we are simply there to protect the natural environment. In many cases it is a question of going about things in the right way. Together with our experts, we collaborate with applicants and planners to find sustainable solutions. We only lodge an appeal in 3% of all cases, i.e. we object to proposals which we do not consider acceptable from an environmental point of view.
