The FutureMARES project hosted its first stakeholder meeting online on 22 October.
Welcome to FutureMARES
Research for Sustainable Marine Eco-systems and Biodiversity in a Climate Changed World
FutureMARES is an EU-funded research project examining the relations between climate change, marine biodiversity and ecosystem services. Our activities are designed around three Nature-based Solutions (NBS):
Sustainable Harvesting of Marine Resources (NBS3)
​
We're conducting our research and cooperating with marine organisations and the public in five Case Study Regions across the globe. Our goal is to provide science-based policy advice on how best to use NBS to protect future biodiversity and ecosystem services in a future climate.
