🌱 Invitation to Contribute – Extended Deadline to 1 September! The Horizon Europe BIOVALUE project, through Eklipse, is seeking expert input on how policy tools can shape spatial planning for biodiversity in EU and accession countries. 💻 We warmly invite you to join our online workshop on 19 September 2025 (09:30–13:00 CEST) to explore solutions and strengthen the uptake of BioValue’s policy recommendations. Your input will directly help improve the transferability and impact of biodiversity-friendly planning practices across Europe. 🔗 Let us know about your participation here: https://lnkd.in/dSYNkpjm

🌊 Your expertise is needed – help support the implementation of the Nature Restoration Regulation (#NRR)! 🐚 We’re looking for input from marine experts across Europe! If you work with the extent, condition, or mapping of marine habitats, please help us identify knowledge gaps and contribute to meeting the targets of the Nature Restoration Regulation (EU) 2024/1991 – Annex II. 🧭 Take the survey (~30 min): 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eQrChNNH Your responses will directly support EU restoration efforts and complement ongoing initiatives under the #MSFD, Habitats Directive, and Horizon/LIFE projects. 🙏 Thank you for contributing to restoring our marine ecosystems! #NatureRestorationRegulation #MarineHabitats #EURegulation #MarinePolicy #EUNIS #HabitatMapping #ConditionAssessment #Biodiversity #ConservationScience #EUProjects #HabitatsDirective #HorizonProjects #LIFEProjects BioAgora Project, Eklipse, ACTNOW | EU Marine Research Project, B-USEFUL, RESPIN project, SURIMI Project, SEAwise, TETTRIs, MARCO-BOLO, Iliad - Digital Twins of the Ocean, @BlackSeaConnect MarineSABRES, MSP4BIO, OBAMA-NEXT Project, MARHAB project, BIOcean5D, DiverSea, DuneFront_EU, CIBBRiNA, BLUE4ALL, Blue Connect Project

🌍 Faktencheck Artenvielfalt: The State of Biodiversity in Germany Biodiversity loss is not only a global crisis — it is happening here in Germany. The new report "Faktencheck Artenvielfalt," authored by 150 experts from 75 institutions, assesses the current status of biodiversity and outlines prospects for conservation. 🔎 Key insights: - Many species once common are becoming rare, and ecosystems are under rapid change. - Main drivers include intensive land use, habitat loss, pollution, and climate change — all human-driven. - But there is hope: examples in the report show that with the right conditions and collective will, biodiversity can recover. The message is clear: since we are the main cause of biodiversity decline, we also hold the power to reverse it. The report highlights the pathways for a societal transformation towards an economy that works with, not against, nature. 👉 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/dipFu5sN #Biodiversity #SciencePolicy #Faktencheck #FEdA #NatureConservation #IPBES #NationalAssessment #BiodiversityCrisis #ScienceCommunication

🌍 Eklipse and the BioAgora Project featured at the 2025 Summer School on Science Policy for Environmental Action hosted by the Geneva Science-Policy Interface (GSPI)! Marie Vandewalle was invited to present both Eklipse and BioAgora Project during this dynamic programme, which brought together experts and participants from 18 institutions to explore how science can effectively support environmental policymaking. The summer school explored how science can effectively support global environmental governance, evidence use in policymaking, and the transformation of science–policy interfaces in an era of interconnected crises. Many thanks to the organisers for facilitating such an engaging exchange on science, governance, and action! #SciencePolicy #Biodiversity #EnvironmentalGovernance #HorizonEurope #GSPI #SciencePolicyInterface #EklipseEurope
