About
The European Marine Board (EMB) is the leading European think tank in marine science policy. It provides a platform to advance marine research and to bridge the gap between science and policy.
The European Marine Board is a unique strategic pan-European Forum for seas and ocean research and technology. We provide a strategic forum to develop marine research foresight, initiate state-of-the-art analyses and translate these into clear policy recommendations to European institutions as well as national governments.
As an independent, self-sustaining, non-governmental advisory body, the European Marine Board transfers knowledge between the scientific community and decision makers, promoting Europe’s leadership in marine research and technology.
The European Marine Board bridges the gap between science and policy using different approaches, such as:
Strategy – identifying scientific challenges and opportunities through foresight activities, analysis and studies, and providing high-level recommendations;
Forum – bringing together European marine research stakeholders to share knowledge, identify common priorities, develop common positions and collaborate;
Voice – expressing a collective vision of European marine research priorities to meet future science and societal challenges and opportunities.
