MARINE Systems Approaches for Biodiversity Resilience and Ecosystem Sustainability

Marine SABRES brings together stakeholders from government, policy, business and coastal management, with marine scientists to co-design a simple Social-Ecological System framework to accelerate the uptake of Ecosystem-Based
Management and strengthen interventions and measures for the protection and conservation of coastal and marine areas, their biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (ES). Marine SABRES will enhance formulation and support implementation of European and international marine policies, by effectively translating scientific knowledge into management and conservation action. It will enable managers to make sustainable decisions; empower citizens to engage with marine biodiversity conservation; and promote sustainable development in coastal and marine sectors, setting Europe on a course to reverse marine biodiversity decline.
