UNCBD COP16: connecting science and policy to strengthen ocean conservation – part 2

The BIOcean5D policy brief – launched at UNCBD COP16, in Cali, Colombia – describes innovative scientific approaches to strengthen existing marine protection and conservation strategies.

UNCBD COP16: connecting science and policy to strengthen ocean conservation – part 1

Improving marine protection and conservation strategies requires integrating new and innovative science-based approaches. Bridging the science-policy gap is a major aspect of BIOcean5D, illustrated by the policy brief launch at UNCBD COP16, in Cali, Colombia.

Collaborative multidisciplinary training for marine sustainability

The sustainable management and long-term preservation of our marine ecosystems require multidisciplinary collaboration. The Synergy Summer School, held from 24 to 28 June 2024 in Ischia (Italy), ensures this integrative approach is incorporated within the advanced training of the next cohort of scientists.

The BIOcean5D policy strategy plan

New deliverable: our strategy to create and distribute three policy briefs that will result from BIOcean5D and other EU-funded research projects is out now

Building a community of seatizens

In December, we began a series of workshops to equip citizen scientists with the PlanktoScope – and with it, an efficient way to monitor the ocean’s microscopic inhabitants across exceptional ecological scales.
