OBJECTIVES
WP6 will upscale the outcomes of WPs 1-4 from local/regional management from the BBTs to EU-level policy making, to provide customised guidance for practitioners, member states representatives and policy-level stakeholders on EU and international levels, targeted to emerging needs. We will utilise state of the art scientific knowledge on European biodiversity and an in-depth understanding of current issues and challenges faced during implementation and reporting for biodiversity assessment and governance, based on the work in the BBT areas. WP6 will examine case studies in Martinique and the Black Sea and evaluate transferability of project outputs. The final WP6 output will be a synthesis and transfer of co-created knowledge from European-based understanding into Marine Biodiversity and Valuation Toolbox, to create a far-reaching legacy to benefit management and governance of marine waters where regulatory systems may not yet be applied across borders.
