Work Package 6 focuses on ensuring the project outcomes are stakeholder-driven and mission-oriented, that they match end user needs and feed more effectively into policy processes and support the EU and its member states reaching its biodiversity targets.
Create and mobilise a Community of Practice (CoP) for stakeholders across the marine biodiversity knowledge value chain to optimise knowledge generation, transfer and uptake of project (and wider) marine biodiversity knowledge outputs.
Enable stakeholder consultation and co-design of data, data products that better meet user needs and requirements across the policy, civil society, industry (blue economy) and research (data) stakeholder groups.
Monitor progress and the impact of MARCO-BOLO on improving the delivery and uptake of data and information products as part of a more coordinated marine biological observing system.
