This event will include a series of short presentations from the partners and a panel discussion on what the eBioAtlas will achieve and how organisations can engage. Presentations will look at how the eBioAtlas Programme can contribute towards Sustainable Development Goals, help track restoration objectives, and prioritise conservation actions through nature-based solutions. We shall present how eDNA surveys democratizes the acquisition of biodiversity data. With our Business Partner, Anglo American, we will discuss the importance of transparency and knowledge for the future, and how business and governments can contribute towards global biodiversity targets. By creating the world’s most comprehensive knowledge base on freshwater (& terrestrial) biodiversity, the eBioAtlas will contribute to identifying priority areas for biodiversity conservation and restoration, supporting the IUCN Red Data List, and protected areas such as KBAs, AZEs, UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and N2K sites.
