EcoScope will develop an efficient, holistic, ecosystem-based approach to sustainable fisheries management that can be easily used by stakeholders and end-users, including policymakers and advisory bodies. 

PAPILLONS' overall aim is to shed light on the sustainability of plastic use in European agriculture in terms of emissions of micro- and nanoplastics, leakage of their chemical additives, and the impact of this on the soil. Through novel applications of the latest in analytical chemistry, materials science, computer modelling and nanofabrication technologies, we elucidate the sources, behavior and impacts of particles at micro- and nanoscale.

NIVA coordinates this 3-year Horizon Europe-funded project that explores and strengthens policy coherence and institutional integration in coastal and marine governance in Europe. 

INOPOL (India-Norway cooperation project on capacity building for reducing plastic and chemical pollution in India) is a collaborative project between NIVA, which leads the project, with MGC as India country lead and several Indian institutions (SRM, CIPET, Toxics Link). The project is part of the Norway-India Marine Pollution Initiative established between Indian and Norwegian authorities in 2019. The project is also part of NORAD’s programme to combat microplastics and marine pollution.

ENCORE is led by Karel Viaene at ARCHE Consulting. The objective of ENCORE is to develop a probabilistic modelling framework for estimation of environmental risk of chemical mixtures in watersheds across Europe.

NIVA har sammen med NIBIO og NINA utviklet en sjekkliste for planlegging av større naturbaserte løsninger basert på planleggingsprosesser for Kjelle-engene våtmark og gjenåpning av Kalnesbekken.

NIVA og NMBU har undersøkt hvordan føringen om å vurdere naturbaserte løsninger for klimatilpasning i arealplanleggingen følges opp i norske kommuner. 

SAfeguard BIodiversity and improve Climate Adaptation in catchment areas under pressure: tools and Solutions

NiD4OCEAN (Nature-inclusive Designs For Reconciling Offshore Renewables With Ocean Protection) is an EU-funded project that advances the knowledge on nature-inclusive designs and their potential innovative solutions to support both sustainable offshore energy development and biodiversity goals.

The complex network of human activities and natural processes affecting coastal areas makes it difficult to manage for blue growth while safeguarding marine environment and ecosystem health. Several different methods are used to assess environmental status, but these cannot identify areas at high risk of high overall impact or identify and assess the contribution of the various sources of impact.

The JUST4CARE project aims to transform climate adaptation practices by integrating principles of justice, equity, and resilience into urban and regional planning. Through inclusive and innovative approaches, the project addresses the specific needs of vulnerable and marginalized groups, who are disproportionately affected by climate change in European cities.
