The European partners in the BiodivERsA network have joined efforts to organize and fund a Pan-European call for international research projects on biodiversity and ecosystem services and their valuation.

The call addressed the following themes, across all ecosystems and organisms:

• a) Relationships between biodiversity and ecosystem services;
• b) Valuation of biodiversity and ecosystem services (monetary and non monetary), and better incorporation of biodiversity and ecosystem services into society and policy.

7 projects were selected for €9.6M funding among 7 countries.
