PERMAGOV  Parnership Meets in Brussels

One year passed and the PERMAGOV project is well on its path of mapping relevant EU marine policies and talking to relevant parties on how can the implementation and the performances of the policies be improved.

The Sea is the Limit – New Project for Folkecenter!

As you probably have read in our previous newsletter, Folkecenter is now part of a new European project called Permagov.

After a first online kick-off meeting which took place in January, last week (21-23 March) we had the chance to join the official kick-off meeting, which took place in Wageningen (the Netherlands). It was very nice to be in presence again, after so long time collaborating online.

EU marine governance gets a boost as new European research project sets sail

EU marine governance must evolve to meet the goals and objectives established in the European Green Deal. A shift is needed from the current largely fragmented nature of marine governance toward a more cross-cutting and agile arrangement, one that is in sync with wider developments taking place at sea, at shores and on land. PERMAGOV, a recently launched Horizon Europe project, sets out to achieve that by piloting a novel multi-level governance approach for various regional seas and national waters around Europe, targeting four areas of key importance to sustainable development: maritime transport, marine energy, marine life, and marine litter.
