BiodivERsA is very excited to announce the release of its second animated video presenting the results of the BUFFER research project!
The project was funded under the 2011-12 BiodivERsA joint call on “Biodiversity Dynamics: Developing scenarios, identifying tipping points and improving resilience”.
Following the URBES project (featured in a first animated video last year), the BUFFER project has been awarded the opportunity to present their work in an animated video as part of the BiodivERsA Prize for Excellence and Impact. This prize acknowledges the excellent, pioneering research performed in BUFFER.
The project developed a new Regulation-Based Classification System for Marine Protected Areas. This system was already adopted by major international organisations as well as local management authorities.

The BiodivERsA prize will be awarded on a yearly basis to showcase the achievements of BiodivERsA-funded projects that have produced excellent science with concrete impacts for policy and/or society.
The Belgian Biodiversity Platform & BiodivERsA led the production of this video, along with the BUFFER project coordinator Joachim Claudet and the video production company, Squarefish.
