“Baltic countries lead EU for sustainable sea space management, still the nature is at risk”, concludes recent evaluation by WWF
The WWF’s Baltic Ecoregion Programme evaluated Baltic EU Member States’ Maritime Spatial Planning (MSP) strategies for sustainably managing marine areas and resources and concluded that Baltic countries’ plans at sea still lack harmony across borders, and measures to restore and protect ecosystems are inadequate.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US: CCMS TURNS 4!
It's our 4th Birthday today and what a 4 years it has been! 9 of March 2018 was the day the Center for Coastal and Marine Studies (CCMS) was officially established. We have accomplished so much, but the best is yet to come!
CCMS was born with the fundamental goal of developing and promoting science, research, knowledge transfer, and innovation technologies in the Black Sea and in the World Ocean by bringing together science, environment, expertise, stakeholders and policy making.
Our activities comprise a vast range of coastal and marine research (studies and surveys in the field of modern coastal and marine processes), as well as support to the implementation of the EU coastal and maritime Strategies and Directives (MSP, ICZM, Blue and Circular Economy, Blue Growth, European Green Deal, etc.), by developing scientific basis and providing knowledge and expertise, project participation, networking and consultancy.
SUBMARINER launched its new online interactive catalogue!
As of 02 of March 2022, the SUBMARINER Network has launched a new interactive online SUBMARINER catalogue. The development of this tool has been made possible with the funding received from the Nordic Council of Ministers and the Interreg BSR Blue Platform project.
Over the past few years, the number of innovative and sustainable blue companies and products has increased significantly. The SUBMARINER Catalogue gives these companies the opportunity to increase their visibility and accessibility for current and future collaborations, as well as forming their own community to forge new business relationships.
Of course, the more companies that join the Catalogue, the more impact it will have. So far only a few companies have pre-registered. The ambition in the coming weeks will therefore be to attract as many companies to register as possible, so that they can in turn be promoted and kept updated on upcoming opportunities.
