Proposal

This meeting is proposed as a series of working sessions on specific topics to achieve the following outcomes:

  • A common roadmap for the development and consolidation of (e-)Infrastructures and services that, from the perspective of e-Science, contribute to:
    • Better sustainable land management
    • Biodiversity conservation and environmental preservation
    • Achievement of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals 2030, in synergy with the EU Green Deal, EU Blue Growth, EU Biodiversity Strategy 2030, and EU From Farm toFork programs, among others
  • Exchange of experiences and capabilities in addressing issues and challenges common to national and international, data, information and (e-)Biodiversity knowledge infrastructures. A consensus-based conclusions document, including an EU-LAC Roadmap, to co-develop, build, and deploy through financial support from relevant calls (CYTED, GBIF, Cooperation Agencies, Horizon Europe, Neighbourhood Development International Cooperation Instrument (NDICI), etc.)
  • The development of the above is based on the paradigm of Biogeographic Regions in the CELAC area, through national cross-border collaboration among the involved states, in collaboration with the European Union and the United Nations (for example, through the Indigenous Knowledge Research Initiative -IKRI- www.ikri.org), based on the aforementioned financial instruments.
