EuropaBON will be part of the European Congress of Conservation Biology, which will take place between 22 to 26 August 2022 in Prague, the Czech Republic. EuropaBON will host a symposium at this event titled “The future of biodiversity monitoring in Europe” where we present potential avenues to enhance and harmonise biodiversity monitoring across Europe: assessing user and policy needs; mapping current monitoring initiatives; identifying essential monitoring variables; enhancing monitoring to support the Nature Directives, Climate and Soil Policies, and Bioeconomy Strategy. We close the session with a presentation of the new European biodiversity partnership Biodiversa+ to aid in the implementation of the EuropaBON and a presentation on NaturaConnect – a new initiative that aims to design a resilient and coherent Trans-European Network for Nature and People.
We are also planning to jointly host an information booth at the conference with our close collaborators at Biodiversa+, so please drop by for a chat if you are attending the event in-person!
