🎂 Today, BioAgora turns four years old! 🔄 Since 2022, we have been developing an EU Science Service for Biodiversity as part of a new chapter of evidence-based decision-making for Europe! 🫵 Discover how to engage with us: bioagora.eu/horizon-euro...

📢 Coming this fall: The third BioAgora #SPIDialogue workshop is set to officially kick off the Knowledge Exchange Network on Agro-ecosystems! 🗓️ 29-30 September 📍 Brussels, Belgium 🖊️ Join us in mapping the future of research-governance engagement in the field: bioagora.eu/news/save-da...

Off we go to @worldbioforum.bsky.social 2026! In the next couple of days, BioAgora is at the spotlight in a number of presentations, sessions and a workshop! Check out: 🔵 Poster session by Maria Blasi on 15 June 🔵 Interactive workshop by Kaisa Lorhonen-Kurki on 16 June #Science4Biodiversity

👀 #Spotted: One week before #WBF2026, BioAgora is already in Switzerland, on display for the annual meeting of @obsgession.eu! 🔎 Amid their discussions on ecosystem observation and acting on it, attendees can discover how we are building an EU Science Service for Biodiversity. #OBSGESSIONmeetings

💚 Last week, the Romanian capital Bucharest was the site of BioAgora's second #SPIDialogue workshop! 🌿 We were joined by policy-makers, experts, NGO representatives and practitioners to discuss the realities of implementing the #NatureRestorationRegulation. 🌐 bioagora.eu/news/bioagor...

🏃 One last stop before we say goodbye to Romania! 🌱 A field trip to the Văcărești Urban Nature Park - a testament to how effective #NatureRestoration helps reverse biodiversity decline. 🙏 Thank you for tuning in over the past two days - look out for the full #SPIDialogue recap soon!

🔄 We are now bringing it all together for a reflection on what we all learned and took away from the workshop! 💚 Facilitated by our hosts from the University of Bucharest, this closing discussion drives home one core message: National engagement in #Science4Biodiversity mechanisms matters!

📢 Today, BioAgora is launching a new Call for Experts! 🪲 This time around, the topic in focus is Invasive Alien Species (IAS), specifically how they are addressed via biosecurity measures across policy sectors. ✍️ Apply: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F... 👀 Find out more: bioagora.eu/news/bioagor...

Day 2️⃣ of our #SPIDialogue workshop begins...with a role-playing game? 👤 "Human Factor" by the BioAgora-funded #BridgingMinds project explores the effect of personal decisions on societal outcomes - very much in line with the theme of #TransformativeChange4Biodiversity!

🐟 Fishbowl time! 🎤 All participants are now sharing perspectives on communication and trust-building across sectors, disciplines and borders to implement the #NatureRestorationRegulation.

✅ The first afternoon session is about indicators in #NRR reporting and how we link nature restoration with water management and climate adaptation. 🗣️ Our keynote speakers for the topic are Anders Iversen (@ec.europa.eu) and Joachim Paul Töpper (@ninanatureresearch.bsky.social) from @coop4cbd.eu.

🧠 Discussion time - participants are now gathered in groups, pondering the various hallmarks of successfully implementing the NRR. 🚧 Crucially, they seek to identify challenges on the road to realising the legislation's vision- in funding, stakeholder engagement, governance and others.

❓To start us off - What does the NRR's realisation look like in practice and what are its underlying national Action Plans? 👉 Yurena Lorenzo from @eea.europa.eu and Florentina Caramitru from Romania's Ministry of Environment, Waters and Forests are now providing the answers.

🏁 On your marks - the second BioAgora #SPIDialogue workshop has just begun! 💚 Experts, practitioners and policy officers have come together in Bucharest for two days of engaging and interactive discussions on the national implementation of the #NatureRestorationRegulation!

👋 One more Hola! from Barcelona - this time from the Final Meeting of @aneris.eu! 🌊 Our partners from @pensoft.net made sure BioAgora materials were #spotted at the event, highlighting the two initiatives' complementary efforts at the science-policy interface for marine biodiversity.
