MARCO-BOLO aims to transform the way marine biodiversity is monitored and managed by connecting existing initiatives, improving and optimising biodiversity observation methods, and new technologies. The project develops practical tools and solutions that allow policy makers, industries, and other stakeholders to assess biodiversity health, predict environmental changes, and proactively manage coastal and marine ecosystems?

As a coordinator, EMBRC’s role is to manage the project’ consortium to meet MARCO-BOLO’s objectives. EMBRC is also responsible for liaising with the European Commission, facilitating implementation and execution of the project.
