In the future, global demand for critical materials will be higher than current supplies and this puts the EU in a vulnerable position.
From Data to Decision-Making
Every 22 of May, the International Day of Biological Diversity is celebrated. This year’s slogan is “Building a shared future for all life” and it was chosen to support for the post-2020 global biodiversity framework to be adopted at the upcoming UN Biodiversity Conference.
Data is crucial for making informed decisions. In order to enhance the availability and accessibility of data and knowledge on the state of biodiversity and to promote regional and national engagement to make policy-related data available, the Joint Research Centre (JRC), through the BIOPAMA Programme, has developed a publicly available online platform for supporting policy- and decision-makers to monitor the progress towards conservation goals and to set new targets.
