Preparing the Research & Innovation Core for Mission Ocean, Seas & Waters

Project description

DEENESFRITPL

Co-creation and co-implementation of research for ocean and water health

Research and innovation (R&I) will be a central component of the Mission Ocean, Seas and Waters, which aims to restore ocean and water health by 2030. The Mission will connect initiatives across disciplines, mobilise policymakers, stakeholders and citizens, and leverage public and private investments. The EU-funded PREP4BLUE project will develop tools and methods for co-creation and co-implementation of R&I modalities, which are required by the Mission objectives. It will also prepare the ground for stimulating and engaging various actors for a successful first phase (2022–2025). The project will deliver tools, guidelines, methodologies and recommendations tested through pilots, which will interconnect, leverage and optimise actions among the projects contributing to the Mission.

Objective

Mission Ocean, seas and water aims at restoring the health of our ocean and waters by 2030, as a major contributor to the European Green Deal and the Sustainable Development Goals. Research and innovation will be a key component of the Mission, which will link initiatives across disciplines, mobilise policymakers, stakeholders and citizens, and leverage public and private investments.
PREP4BLUE overarching objective is to facilitate a successful first phase (2022-2025) of the Mission, by developing the co-creation and co-implementation R&I modalities required to achieve the Mission objectives and preparing the ground for inspiring and engaging citizens and stakeholders.
The project is designed to deliver a series of tools, guidelines, methodologies and recommendations tested through pilots, which will interlink, leverage and optimise activities among the projects funded under the Mission. Our systemic approach will foster cohesion and connectivity between knowledge and technology, funding, regulation, education and skills, social structures and co-creation with R&I actors, citizens and stakeholders.
PREP4BLUE multidisciplinary and multi-actor consortium is actively engaged in basin-based strategies and related R&I activities, with strong experience in co-developing business models and recommendations for policy-makers, expertise in social sciences related to participative democracy and citizen engagement and excellent track-record in methodologies for knowledge management and transfer, as well as in stakeholder engagement.
PREP4BLUE will also carry out strategic actions to assure the alignment of our CSA with the evolution of the Mission components, including the Mission Core Network, other contributors to the Mission and other Missions. Our project will contribute to preparedness and engagement of all relevant stakeholders to empower them to play an active role in the Mission.
