An information webinar will be organised on October 27, from 14:00 to 15:30 CET (local time in Brussels) to answer all your questions about the new Biodiversa/WATER JPI Call on “Conservation and restoration of degraded ecosystems and their biodiversity, including a focus on aquatic systems”.
[NB: the call includes a focus on aquatic systems but all environments are eligible]
Please make sure to consult the complete announcement of opportunity and call documents before the webinar, available on the BiodivERsA website.
- In the first stream, EuropaBON will present preliminary ideas for a European-wide Biodiversity Monitoring Coordination Centre (BMCC) and invite all participants to discuss them in several smaller focused group sessions. At the end of 2023, EuropaBON will submit a set of proposals for a European-wide biodiversity monitoring framework to the European Commission. This stakeholder conference serves as an initial starting point to discuss these proposals and will allow to consider participants’ feedback in their further development.
- Facilitated by Biodiversa+, the second stream focuses on the use of biodiversity monitoring data in private-sector decision-making. This session will be upon invitation only, and not open for remote participation (closed session). It will aim at discussing the needs of the private sector to use biodiversity monitoring data, exchange best practices and discuss the benefits and opportunities of a pan-European monitoring network.
Participants attending the meeting in person are cordially invited to the cocktail reception on the evening of November 8th.
