Advancing freshwater restoration

(Danube Region Water Lighthouse Action; Topic: HORIZON-MISS-2021-OCEAN-02-02)

The DALIA project shows how much PEOPLE MAKE A DIFFERENCE when it comes to success in #FreshwaterRestoration.

EcoAdvance (Horizon Europe) Partner Zuzana Boukalova addresses 9 demonstration sites from Danube basin region, keen to discuss the multidisciplinary approaches leading to the successful restoration of the Danube catchment environment and the approaches needed to improve the restoration of fresh and transitional water ecosystems.

EcoAdvance visited the High level international BIOEAST congress - “Setting up a research and innovation agenda for the BIOEAST Macro-Region” in Warsaw, 15-16 MARCH 2023!
 
The high level international BIOEAST Congress is organised in the framework of the BIOEAST Initiative and under the auspices of the Polish Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development with the support of the Horizon 2020 BIOEASTsUP project.
 
The congress aims to present a newly developed macro-regional Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (BIOEAST SRIA) and 11 bioeconomy concept papers developed based on the assessment of the eleven BIOEAST countries’ bioeconomies.
 
EcoAdvance project represented by Zuzana Boukalova (METCENAS) is trying to set the clustering activities with the stakeholders of the BIOEAST under the thematic area Freshwater-based Bioeconomy and EU Mission Restore our Ocean & Waters.
 
Thank you for the excellent congress and Barna Kovacs PhD for the wonderful presentation!
 
#Freshwater #Bioeconomy 

Great joint Alternet and Society for Ecological Restoration (SER) webinar!

Europe is recognizing the urgency of restoring our environmental assets. The new #NatureRestorationLaw will put the law where theory, guidance and directives stood alone. Cogent and helpful presentations from Maurice Hoffmann, Jordi Cortina-Segarra, Karolina D'CUNHA, and Kris Decleer  ---all very relevant whether your focus is on #NBS or #EcosystemServices.

But will real requirements replace moving targets?
How do we make sure the new law facilitates the integration of science and policy?
 
The key ingredient? The People. Building on the successes of the past and leveraging them to accelerate restoration depends on the People who know how!! 
 
Help EcoAdvance (Horizon Europe) find the people who have brought #freshwaterrestoration to this threshold and whose advice, experience and best practices are needed NOW.
 
Join the consultation effort so the leaders in your country get the credit they deserve for bringing us this far.

If you are interested in #FreshwaterRestoration — we need your ideas!

EcoAdvance (Horizon Europe) is a coordination and support action project designed to identify and showcase successful freshwater restoration projects and the people who made them successful in each of the Member States.
It’s a non-traditional, people and community focused project –
It's freshwater restoration from the perspectives of the people who did it, the scientists whose research blazed the way, the communities who changed their neighborhoods and the public officials who have championed getting it done.
 
How do we quantify –or even understand – return on investment and success in freshwater restoration? Clearly #ecosystemservices is an important methodology. But is it all in the numbers?

Join the conversation! Help identify the people and projects who have made freshwater restoration successful in your country.
Let’s talk about what drives success in freshwater restoration.
