Description
TheBRIDGE-BS Final Conference will take place on 25 November 2025 in Brussels, bringing together regional and international stakeholders to reflect on the project’s achievements and shape the future of sustainable development in the Black Sea.
This conference follows four and a half years of collaboration, innovation, and groundbreaking marine research. The BRIDGE-BS project has now reached a critical phase in advancing the implementation of the Black Sea Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda, paving the way for joint actions and future regional cooperation.
Funded by the European Union under the Horizon 2020 program, BRIDGE-BS has been a flagship effort to advance knowledge, deliver research, and empower citizens for a sustainable and resilient Black Sea. With 31 partners from 14 countries, the project has delivered science-based solutions to tackle the Black Sea’s multi-stressors while supporting innovation and cooperation across borders.
The conference is a celebration of BRIDGE-BS’s achievements and a call to action. It aims to strengthen the science-policy-society interface, support the Black Sea SRIA Implementation Plan, and contribute to the long-term sustainability of the Black Sea through evidence-based strategies and cooperation.
The event will bring together EU officials, researchers, policymakers, private sector innovators, NGOs, and youth representatives, fostering new collaborations and reinforcing the Black Sea’s role in the global marine sustainability agenda.
