The Pan Baltic Scope project leaders of the activities  1.2.1 Ecosystem-Based Approach (EBA) Toolbox and 1.2.2. Implementation of EBA in sub-basin SEA are happy to invite you to the second joint workshop in Malmö, Sweden on 9-10 May 2019.

The aim of the workshop is to develop preliminary findings on EBA and SEA further, leading to a handbook and recommendations for the Baltic Sea Region by the end of 2019. So far the results include a questionnaire on EBA and SEA, and a draft analysis report on EBA. During the first joint workshop in October 2018 we already looked into the results of the questionnaire. A workshop on the application of EBA in Finnish/Åland MSP will also be held and a case study is initiated on SEA/EBA in the Southern Baltic Sea.

Discussion points for the upcoming workshop
EBA as a framework umbrella

• Evaluation of HELCOM/VASAB MSP Working Group EBA guidelines and EBA Toolbox

Coherent SEA in a transboundary context

The workshop will take place at Hotel Garden in the center of Malmö, Sweden starting at 10:00 on Thursday 9th ending at 15:30 on Friday 10th of May 2019. It would be great to have you with us shaping the MSP future of the Baltic Sea Region!
