BioAgora - Bio Knowledge Agora: Developing the Science Service for European Research and Biodiversity Policymaking

尽管对科学为生物多样性相关政策制定提供信息的必要性和丰富的科学-政策界面领域的理解有所提高，但在确保所有社会部门的所有决策者在规划、预算和决定对地方、国家、欧盟和全球生物多样性产生影响的行动时直接获得基于研究的知识方面仍然存在差距。BioAgora将开发一个科学服务，它将响应spi目前的差距和未来的需求，并提供欧盟生物多样性知识中心（KCBD）的科学支柱。它将引导欧盟生物多样性科学从监测到元分析的整个景观，并通过双向平台将这些知识传达给欧盟机构和更广泛的社区。为此，该项目将利用欧洲及其他地区正在进行的spi进程作为示范案例，以解决为科学服务处确定的最紧迫需求。Bio-Agora将通过共同创造弥合科学、实践和政策之间差距的新方法来超越最先进的技术，并将其作为科学服务处为满足未来需求而发展的基础。它将1)分析SPIs的现有格局，评估其政策工具和欧洲目前拥有的生物多样性知识；2)与广泛的行动者进行接触——那些已经建立的行动者和那些尚未完全融入格局的行动者，以及SPIs的用户；3)通过在实际生活中的测试，形成沿项目跨度的科学服务治理结构和系统模型；4)为欧盟的决策者提供能力建设，使他们有能力进行生物多样性的变革。Bio-Agora将提供一个功能齐全、反应迅速的科学服务，能够提供适合用途的材料和工具的一站式服务，使决策者能够确保生物多样性和可持续性转型

Despite improved understanding of the need for science to inform biodiversity related policy making and the rich field of science-policy interfaces (SPIs) there remains a gap in ensuring that all decision makers across all societal sectors have direct access to research-based knowledge when planning, budgeting and deciding on actions that have an impact on local, national, EU and global biodiversity. BioAgora will develop a Science Service, which responds to the present gaps and future needs in SPIs and provides the science pillar of the EU’s Knowledge Centre for Biodiversity (KCBD). It will channel the entire landscape of EU biodiversity science from monitoring to meta-analyses and communicate this knowledge through two-way platforms to EU institutions and the broader community. To do this, the project will use ongoing processes of SPIs across Europe and beyond, as demonstration cases, to address the most urgent needs identified for the Science Service. Bio-Agora will go beyond the state of the art by co-creating new ways of bridging the gap between science, practice and policy and use this as a basis for the Science Service’s development for future needs. It will 1) analyse the existing landscape of SPIs, assess their policy tools and the current biodiversity knowledge held in Europe, 2) engage with a broad range of actors –those already established ones and those not yet fully integrated within the landscape, as well as the users of SPIs; 3) form the Science Service governance structure and systems model along the projects span by testing it in real life; 4) provide capacity building for the EU community of decision makers to become empowered for transformative change for biodiversity. Bio-Agora will deliver a functional and responsive Science Service, capable of providing a one-stop-shop for fit-for-purpose materials and tools which enable decision makers to secure biodiversity and sustainability transformation
