🫵BioAgora is helping to write the next chapter for EU environmental governance - and you have the chance to join us in strengthening #Science4Biodiversity! 💚As part of the #HorizonEU work programme for 2025, future research projects are invited to engage with BioAgora as it establishes the Science Service for Biodiversity (SSBD), the scientific pillar of the European Commission's own Knowledge Centre for Biodiversity. This platform is set to become a focal point in the biodiversity science-policy interface of the EU. Here is how you can become a part of building up the SSBD: 📜 contribute to policy requests for knowledge issued by the Commission 🗣️ participate in policy dialogues on key biodiversity topics 🤝join a Knowledge Exchange Network based on your field of expertise 💡share your knowledge together with BioAgora 👀 Find out more about the many ways you can work with us here: https://lnkd.in/d_6VBcXJ #Biodiversity #ForNature #ForOurPlanet

Connecting biodiversity knowledge and decision-making
About us
BioAgora is a collaborative European project funded by the Horizon Europe programme. It aims to connect research results on biodiversity to the needs of policy making in a targeted dialogue between scientists, other knowledge holders and policy actors. Its main outcome will be the development of a Science Service for Biodiversity. This new service will fully support the ecological transition required by the European Green Deal and the European Union’s Biodiversity Strategy for 2030. The BioAgora project was launched in July 2022 for a duration of 5 years. It gathers a Consortium of 22 partners, from 13 European countries, led by SYKE, the Finnish Environment Institute. Partners represent a diversity of actors coming from academia, public authorities, SMEs, and associations. Funded by the European Union. BioAgora receives funding from the European Union's Horizon Europe research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 101059438. Views and opinions expressed are however those of the author(s) only and do not necessarily reflect those of the European Union or the European Commission.

👏 We congratulate our partners from the TRANSPATH Project on being highlighted by the European Commission in the context of #TransformativeChange alongside BioAgora! 🔁 Our partnership to jointly explore and develop avenues for deeper and more impactful science-policy dialogues continues to evolve as the activities of both projects grow in scope and sophistication. #Biodiversity #ForNature #ForOurPlanet
The TRANSPATH project is featured in the European Commission's latest publication on transformative change! ✨ A recent brochure by EU Science, Research and Innovation highlights EU-funded projects that support the facilitation of transformative change for biodiversity. 🌱 TRANSPATH was recognised for its unique contribution to mapping and activating leverage points that can drive profound systemic change, from economic systems to governance and societal values, to transform how biodiversity and sustainability are embedded in policy and practice. Read more on TRANSPATH's role in supporting #TransformativeChange4Biodiversity on our website: https://lnkd.in/dUgaXeFY 🔗 Learn more from the 'Towards transformative change for biodiversity' brochure itself: https://lnkd.in/d8Gddbg9, where other Transformative Change projects are also highlighted, including BioAgora Project, BIONEXT Project, BIOTraCes, EU BIOTRAILS, BIOVALUE project, PLANET4B Project, RainforestHEU, and TCforBE Project, 🤝🌍 #TransformativeChange #ForNature #Sustainability #GenerationRestoration #HorizonEU #EUHorizon #ForOurPlanet #Biodiversity
