Description
This report explores how to effectively implement and maintain long-term, transnational biodiversity monitoring schemes across Europe. Drawing on insights from case studies, expert workshops, and Biodiversa+ pilots, it identifies key governance, funding, methodological, and coordination challenges, and offers practical strategies to address them.
The report analyses top-down, bottom-up, and hybrid approaches to biodiversity monitoring, detailing their respective strengths and limitations. It introduces five key dimensions for scheme sustainability: governance structures, funding models, coordination mechanisms, data management, and policy relevance. It also proposes a multi-criteria framework to support decision-making on which schemes to prioritise for long-term support.
Aimed at policy-makers, research funders, and monitoring practitioners, the report serves as a strategic guide to building coherent, scalable, and policy-relevant biodiversity monitoring systems at the European level.
