Open Webinar on EU Biodiversity Strategy 2030 on 1 July with Top EU-level Biodiversity Policy Speakers

Leading biodiversity scholars at Finnish universities have published a position paper as a reflection on the EU Post-2020 Biodiversity Framework and Biodiversity Strategy 2030. The paper highlights the role of the universities in safeguarding global biodiversity and human health. The key messages are also crucial for the implementation EU Green Deal and Horizon Europe.

The position paper is the starting point for the webinar EU BIODIVERSITY STRATEGY 2030 - The Role of Science and Education in Safeguarding Biodiversity, which will be held on 1 July 2020 at 11-13h (CET) / 12-14h Finnish time.
