Objetivos

La investigación científica sobre biodiversidad ha demostrado que la pérdida y la degradación de los servicios de los ecosistemas se están acelerando a un ritmo sin precedentes y a escala mundial.

Estos daños afectan no solo al mundo natural sino también a la sociedad humana. Por lo tanto, es imperativo que la ciencia de la biodiversidad reciba el apoyo que necesita para ofrecer soluciones prácticas a estos grandes problemas.

BiodivERsA está respondiendo a esta necesidad mediante la construcción de una plataforma dinámica y sostenible para identificar los problemas estratégicos más acuciantes para la biodiversidad. Apoya y promueve la excelencia en la investigación de la biodiversidad que es relevante para la política y la gestión de la biodiversidad, a escala transnacional europea.
