EcoAdvance at the launch of the BioDivRestore Knowledge Hub
EcoAdvance Partner Lisa Waldenberger just came back from Paris and the launch of the BioDivRestore Knowledge Hub, a joint effort from Biodiversa+ and Water JPI/Water4All - Partnership to develop the knowledge Europe will need to effectively implement a hashtag#NatureRestoration Law.
Hosted by the Ministère de la Transition Écologique et de la Cohésion des Territoires, and kicked off by Kim De Rijck, Policy Officer Biodiversity and Nature Restoration, EC, with a clear message:
Europe must build synergies among the various initiatives and projects and make restoration knowledge more accessible in order to speed up the practice of restoration across Europe.
Lisa’s Task Force, on Research and Innovation, chaired by Metodi Sotirov and Stephanie Mansourian, spent two productive days outlining their roadmap and priorities. Sister projects MERLIN and BioAgora Project joined 50 other European and International experts from different aspects of restoration to hammer out workplans.
This will certainly shape up to be a serious resource for European efforts to staunch Biodiversity loss and adapt to climate change. Stay Tuned!
