6th Call for Requests now open
Deadline to apply: 19 March 2021
Eklipse was created in 2016 to help governments, institutions, businesses and NGOs make better-informed decisions when it comes to biodiversity in Europe. A European Union funded project until November 2020, it is now managed by Alternet, the European Science-Policy Interface on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services.
Eklipse has already answered requests on a vast range of topics, by synthesizing the best available knowledge from scientists and other knowledge holders.
The Call for Experts resulted in 29 excellent applications received. A selection committee composed of 6 members has been put in place to score all applications and proceeded to the selection. We are really pleased to announce that 14 applicants from 10 nationalities have accepted the invitation to answer together this key policy relevant question. The Kickoff meeting will take place on February 22nd and the Eklipse team is looking forward to working with the new EWG´s members.
The report written by the Eklipse Working Group has identified key barriers and defined enabling factors to increase restoration effectiveness in Europe. If you want to learn more about this subject, consult the outcomes of the request, read the last published article or listen to our new podcast.
