BioAgora hosted its second Science-Policy Interface (SPI) Dialogue Workshop in Bucharest, Romania, on 2–3 June 2026. The event brought together policymakers, scientists, NGOs and biodiversity practitioners to discuss the implementation of the EU Nature Restoration Regulation, particularly in Southeast Europe. The workshop aimed to identify challenges, knowledge gaps and opportunities for stronger collaboration between science, policy and practice, supporting evidence-based biodiversity decision-making through BioAgora’s EU Science Service for Biodiversity (SSBD).
