Decision-makers & Planners

Who they are

Local, national and EU-level actors shaping policies and measures that affect seas, climate and biodiversity. This includes municipalities, ministries responsible for environment and climate, maritime and water authorities, and European institutions working in environmental research, innovation and governance.

Why they matter

Their decisions directly influence whether restorative actions are enabled, delayed or prevented. Strengthening their understanding of real-world challenges is key to accelerating meaningful action.
