• CORDIS database: for exploring past and ongoing EU-funded research and innovation projects on biodiversity and trade
• EU research project-policy link explorer (TIM dashboard): for exploring FP7 (2007-13) and Horizon 2020 (2014-20) EU-funded research and innovation projects on biodiversity and trade. The dataset has been retrieved from CORDIS database by the Tools for Innovation Monitoring System (TIM) developed by the JRC. The retrieved projects are then quality checked to identify and visualize only those relevant to biodiversity and trade.
• EU funding and tenders portal: for exploring funding and tender opportunities on biodiversity and trade

• BAMBOO - Biodiversity and trade: mitigating the impacts of non-food biomass global supply chains

Despite its importance, biodiversity is at a high risk of a 6th mass extinction. Widespread trade networks spanning our globe allow consumption in one part of the world to cause biodiversity impacts elsewhere. Unfortunately, we have limited and incomplete tools for assessing the impacts of trade on biodiversity, which hampers mitigating these losses for policymakers, retailers and other stakeholders. In BAMBOO, we want to rectify this situation with a focus on non-food biomass.

• CLEVER - Creating leverage to enhance biodiversity outcomes of global biomass trade

CLEVER identifies new leverage points for sustainable transformation informed by a novel holistic approach to quantify biodiversity and other impacts of trade in major raw and processed non-food biomass value chains. In line with Pillars 3&4 of the EU Biodiversity Strategy 2030, we address all outcomes of this topic by adopting perspectives at the system and value chain levels.
