The three EU-funded projects CHARTER, FACE-IT and ECOTIP are researching on biodiversity in relation to ice loss in the Arctic. Jointly with the EU Polar Cluster, these projects are organizing a policy briefing entitled “Arctic biodiversity, climate and food security”, on 15 March 2023 (2:00-4:00 pm) in Brussels in the library of the ORBN building (Square Frère-Orban 8, 1040 – Etterbeek). This policy briefing will also be web streamed; please register with the links below.
We aim to provide relevant insights for European policy makers with respect to the Green Deal adopted by the European Commission, the work of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), and the EU’s updated Arctic Policy.
After a brief input from the three projects, the core of the event will be a panel discussion between people representing different perspectives (EU, national policy, Indigenous groups, research). The briefing finishes with some exhibition insights into the research of the three projects. Below, you can find a more detailed program.
We would like to invite you to this event and to contribute to the discussion. Feel free to distribute this invitation and the links to the event below to interested colleagues.
We have lined up a knowledgeable and diverse panel and look forward to seeing you in person or online
Please register by 13 March 2023, 12:00 noon.
