Biodiversity on DDPS sites

DDPS sites have considerable potential to promote biodiversity. Many areas used by the armed forces are in protected landscapes and nature reserves. Armed forces’ sites are used less intensively than non-military areas, creating unique habitats. The DDPS has been encouraging species diversity for over 20 years through the Nature, Landscape and Armed programme (NLA).
