SUMMARY:Webinar: Neues Projekt ElbeXtreme 
DESCRIPTION:Extremereignisse wie Überschwemmungen\, Dürren\, Hitzewellen und Sturmfluten sind Risikofaktoren für die Bevölkerung\, Wirtschaftsstandorte und bedrohen zudem die Küstenökosysteme. Die Häufigkeit und Intensität der Ereignisse nimmt aufgrund des globalen Klimawandels und der zunehmenden Verschlechterung der globalen Ökosystems zu. Nicht nur die die Bevölkerung an den Küsten\, sondern auch Gemeinden an Flüssen und Ästuaren sind den neuen Risiken ausgesetzt. Es ist eine Herausforderung\, die Auswirkungen und Risiken dieser Extremereignisse zu bewerten und eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Grundlage für die Planung und Umsetzung von Anpassungs- und Abschwächungsmaßnahmen zu schaffen. ElbeXtreme befasst sich mit dieser Fragestellung\, indem es in Zusammenarbeit mit Interessengruppen Schwerpunkte für Anpassungs- und Abschwächungsmaßnahmen erarbeitet.  \n\n\n\nUm unser Projekt öffentlich vorzustellen\, freuen wir uns\, Sie zu unserem kommenden Webinar am 5. Dezember von 15:00-16:00 Uhr via Zoom einzuladen. Während dieses Webinars werden Sie die Möglichkeit haben\, zu erfahren\, wie das Projekt funktioniert\, welche Forschungsarbeiten durchgeführt werden und wie Sie sich beteiligen können. Darüber hinaus haben Sie die Möglichkeit\, sich in einer interaktiven Fragerunde mit dem Projekt auseinanderzusetzen.

SUMMARY:Nutrient proposals for the new EU Circular Economy Act and the CAP
DESCRIPTION:The President of the European Commission\, Ursula von der Leyen\, plans an ambitious EU Circular Economy Act\, to follow the second Circular Economy Action Plan (March 2020)\, replacing this Commission document by a regulatory act. Ms von der Leyen’s mission letter for the new Commissioner for Environment\, Water Resilience and a Competitive Circular Economy\, Jessika Roswall\, specifies that the new Circular Economy Act should include measures to create market demand for secondary materials and a single market for waste\, especially for critical raw materials (phosphate rock is on the EU Critical Raw Material List since 2014\, confirmed in the EU Critical Raw Materials Act 2024). ESPP will develop proposals for nutrients in this expected new Act \n\n\n\nThe Common Agricultural Policy represents over 40% of the EU budget. The current CAP runs from 2023 to 2027. An interim evaluation report is expected in 2025. ESPP will develop proposals for integrating nutrient management (including the Green Deal and UNEP Biodiversity Convention 50% nutrient loss reduction objective) and nutrient recycling into the future CAP revision. \n\n\n\nTwo day meeting to discuss these two important policies and to develop proposals to input to the European Commission. 21-22 January 2025\, Brussels and online.

SUMMARY:CrossGov Webinar Series - Towards a Coherent & Cross-Compliant Ocean Governance
DESCRIPTION:Towards a Coherent & Cross-Compliant Ocean Governance is a webinar series showcasing insights on how the EU governs its oceans and seas. Marine governance experts will share their findings\, recommendations and tools to advance the alignment of conservation and sustainable development targets in marine policies\, supporting the achievement of the Green Deal’s goals. \n\n\n\nFind more information and register for one or more webinars individually below. \n\n\n\n1. Understanding the ambitions for the European oceans\, regulatory realities and the need for policy coherence. 🌊 \n\n\n\nDate: Monday 17th of March\, 11:00-12:00. \n\n\n\nRegister here \n\n\n\nThe European Green Deal (and the forthcoming Oceans Pact) set many ambitious goals and targets for the oceans. These need to be implemented and realized within a complex landscape of old and new policies and laws. This webinar sheds light on the diverse set of marine ambitions\, the complex regulatory context in which these should be achieved\, and the need for more policy coherence to ensure that. \n\n\n\n2. Policy coherence in marine governance – How can we comprehensively assess and understand it? 🌊 \n\n\n\nDate: Thursday 27th of March\, 11:00-12:00. \n\n\n\nRegister here \n\n\n\nPolicy coherence refers to the extent to which different policies work in concert\, reinforcing each other by fostering synergies and mitigating conflict. The lack of coherence can result in sub-optimal trade-offs or incentives that undermine the objectives of other policies. Policy coherence is crucial for the realization of the various high-level ambitions of the Green Deal. It has also been emphasized strongly in the context of the forthcoming Oceans Pact. This webinar provides a deep dive into the concept of policy coherence and clarifies how it can be assessed in the context of marine policies. \n\n\n\n3. Evidence-based marine policy making: concepts\, challenges\, and recommendations 🌊 \n\n\n\nDate: Thursday 3rd of April\, 11:00-12:00 \n\n\n\nRegister here \n\n\n\nScience-policy-society interfaces (SPSIs) are interactions between scientists and actors involved in the policy process that allow exchanges\, co-evolution\, and joint construction of knowledge\, therefore enriching decision-making. When optimal\, SPSIs ensure sound policy formulation\, implementation\, and adaptation processes\, and can deal with different elements\, such as incomplete knowledge\, unpredictability\, uncertainty\, and ambiguity\, thus improving coherence and cross-compliance in ocean governance. This webinar\, centred on the topic of evidence-based policymaking in the field of marine governance\, presents the main conceptual elements of SPSIs functioning\, provides examples of current practices\, challenges and related recommendations to support effective SPSIs towards reaching EGD objectives. \n\n\n\n4. Balancing offshore wind energy expansion and biodiversity protection in the North Sea 🌊 \n\n\n\nDate: Monday 12th of May\, 11:00-12:00. \n\n\n\nRegister here \n\n\n\nThe EU’s targets for offshore renewable energy and biodiversity conservation are ambitious\, multi-layered\, and ultimately interconnected. Offshore wind energy is a key pillar in the EU’s clean energy transition\, yet its expansion raises concerns about potential trade-offs with marine biodiversity protection. This webinar will explore governance challenges in aligning offshore wind deployment with conservation objectives. Through expert insights and case study examples\, panelists will discuss the current policy landscape\, highlight conflicts and synergies\, and identify opportunities to enhance coherence between climate and biodiversity goals. \n\n\n\n5) Policy coherence from source to sea 🌊 \n\n\n\nDate: Wednesday 14th of May\, 11:00-12:00 \n\n\n\nRegister here \n\n\n\nA source-to-sea approach ensures that upstream activities\, such as agriculture and industrial processes\, are managed to prevent downstream impacts on coastal and marine ecosystems. This session provides insights from three national case studies on how the source-to-sea issue is addressed in the policy and regulatory landscape of Europe. The studies specifically focus on mechanisms to to ensure coherence between WFD and MSFD\, two directives for achieving good environmental/ecological status – however with different geographical and thematic focus areas.

SUMMARY:Seagriculture EU 2025
DESCRIPTION:Seagriculture EU 2025 will gather top speakers\, who will share their know-how within seaweed for feed\, food\, offshore cultivation\, biorefinery of seaweed\, and much more. \n\n\n\nThe Seagriculture conference has built up a solid reputation as the leading conference for the seaweed industry\, the Seagriculture conference in Europe has been successfully organized since 2012. The 13th edition of this seaweed event took place in Tórshavn\, Faroe Islands with a record number of 224 delegates from 25 countries. \n\n\n\nSeaweed cultivation in Europe is showing promise in terms of growth\, however challenges in regulations\, cost\, and market viability could affect the pace of this growth in the future. \n\n\n\nThe Seagriculture conferences focus on addressing those challenges in the seaweed industry\, fostering collaboration among various stakeholders\, and emphasizing the importance of sustainable practices\, innovation\, research\, and regulatory adaptability for long-term success. \n\n\n\nThe demand for edible seaweeds (or marine algae) is increasing in Europe. Seaweed (macroalgae) grows in a variety of forms and colours in the ocean as well as in freshwater environments. Its biochemical composition and properties make seaweed a valuable material\, and its range of applications is growing as current R&D technologies are refined and new discoveries are made. They include food products for humans\, animal feed\, cosmetics\, bio-based chemicals for various industries\, fertilisers\, biofuel\, and high-quality building insulation\, among others.
