Final recommendations, transferability and scale-up of effective biodiversity mainstreaming in MPS

Final recommendations, transferability and scale-up of effective biodiversity mainstreaming in MPS will take a form of a concise easy to read report developed in Task 5.4. It will provide the results of the cross-test site analysis and advise on the transferability of results and potentials and barriers for its upscaling. The recommendations will be presented for each of the European Sea Basins highlighting key challenges, opportunities, and enabling conditions necessary for success, to provide the basis for scaling up across Europe. The key elements of the report will include a) the ways biodiversity attributes and connectivity can be considered in MSP depending on the local conditions, b) key pitfalls and enablers for ecosystem-based management of key economic sectors depending on the sea basin relevance, and c) key policy coherence considerations feeding into regional strategies.
