WP 4 of the project aims to contribute to the design, implementation and testing of science-policy interfaces for biodiversity in order to improve the effectiveness of science-policy interfaces regarding the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity through a number of test cases.

By supporting the design and implementation of science-policy interfaces operating at the sub-national, national, European and international level and in various contexts, we aim to provide a practical contribution to as wide a range of applications as possible and to learn from what will constitute real-life experiments

The lessons learnt in the test cases will be synthesised and generalised where appropriate to feed in the synthesis. To this aim, a Validation stakeholder workshop will be organized which will review, validate and refine the conclusions and recommendations emerging from the project.
