WP1 – Underpinning the Biodiversity Strategy – Case
Study Hub (Lead UFZ, UniTrento): Roel May,
Zander Venter and Jiska van Dijk
There are 4 main DCs:
- Freshwater - Restoring River connectivity to improve freshwater biodiversity.
- Nature based Solutions (NBS) - Related to the greening of urban and peri-urban areas to
bring resilient nature back into our cities and ensure
sustainable urban ecosystems.
- Pollination - Related to agriculture.
- Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) - To elaborate on the interactions of the Biodiversity Strategy
for 2030 and the CBD processes, and deal with all
sections of the Biodiversity Strategy, to see how they mutually support or compete
with each other (collaborating with Horizon Europe ‘Cooperation with CBD’
call).
NINA will contribute with a sustainable land DC to facilitate
the implementation of the 30x30 target within the biodiversity strategy, using
the same approaches as from the 4 main DC’s.
WP2 – Landscape of actors, networks and policies (Lead
SYKE): Matthew Grainger
NINA contributes with assessing the cross-sectoral
dialogue and biodiversity policy environment.
WP3 – State of knowledge (Lead
WCMC): Katariina Vuorinen, Jiska van Dijk, Anette L. Havmo
NINA will map challenges of past research gap and
horizon scanning exercises, to create recommendations for how such activities
should be conducted in the future Science Service. Collaboration with Alternet
among others.
WP4 – Inclusive and functional Science Service (Lead
INRAE): Jiska van Dijk
NINA contributes with building the Science Service,
setting up the functions, governing bodies, decision-making mechanisms and
ethical infrastructure.
WP5 – Empowering collective agency across scales
and sectors (Lead ESSRG): Katariina
Vuorinen, Jiska van Dijk, Anette L. Havmo, Kristin E. Mathiesen
NINA, together with Alternet, contributes with
broadening the capacities towards transdisciplinary collaboration, implements
Summer Schools/workshops among others.
WP6 – Coordination and Project Management (Lead
