ECSA 61: Bridging the gap between science and policy in estuarine and coastal marine biodiversity: the way forward

Brussels is set to host a conference titled: 'Bridging the gap between science and policy in estuarine and coastal marine biodiversity: the way forward' from 24-27 August 2026.

The event, organised by Elsevier, a global leader in advanced information and decision support for science and healthcare, invites participates in ECSA 61 to contribute findings in all aspects of coastal and estuarine sciences. Building on the results of several Horizon Europe projects it is a unique opportunity to show recent advances of coastal marine research and their applications for European and international policies.

For this purpose, ECSA 61 brings together a global multi-disciplinary community of researchers and professionals. This 'Science-meets-Policy' day will discuss research findings and applications for a sustainable future of coasts with managers and decision-makers from Europe and all over the world, and the ways in which these can be used in current monitoring and assessment policies.
