High level panel on Synergies between Sea Basins Strategies at EMD 2025 | Cork, Ireland

/in /by

The EU Sea Basins Strategies are focused on strengthening the sustainable blue economy towards resilient sea basins – whether it is the Western Mediterranean, the Atlantic , the Black Sea, or the emerging one for the North Sea.

But Sea Basin Strategies can also learn from each other and identify common areas for joint action, while reflecting on how they can best support new EU priorities and challenges ahead.

For this reason, the Sea Basins Assistance Mechanism supports the EU Commission to ensure a streamlined cross sea basin dialogue.

High level panel on Synergies between Sea Basins Strategies
After last year’s inspiring discussion on this topic, the main stage at EMD 2025 will again see a high level panel discussion focused on Synergies between Sea Basins Strategies.
