Join EuropaBON’s first stakeholder workshop!

A further focus of the event is to align with the needs of European policy and key strategic objectives, including the European Green Deal, the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, BiodivERsA, the Horizon 2020 and the Horizon Europe work programmes. The H2020 EuropaBON project aims to engage stakeholders at the regional, national and European level to identify the data needs of policies and targets aligned with the aforementioned new European Green Deal. Recognising that there is a critical need for European biodiversity monitoring schemes to be standardized, more effective, less costly and better integrated into European biodiversity policies, EuropaBON will investigate the feasibility of setting up a Biodiversity Monitoring Coordination Centre in Europe.

As part of EuropaBON, IIASA is leading Work Package (WP) 2 on Stakeholder Engagement, and participating in other relevant WPs, including WP5 on policy showcases of biodiversity monitoring data.
