About the meeting

The focus of this year's meeting is on BECC research, highlighting some of our many successful and topical research areas, and the BECC researchers' engagement in international networks and programmes.

The annual meeting also marks the kick-off for BECC's new research organisation, based on Grand Challenge Themes, which replace the familiar Clusters, but are problem-oriented, bringing together researchers from diverse fields around common issues in biodiversity, ecosystem services and global change.

Ample time will be dedicated to sharing ideas and visions for the new themes and the research activities they are intended to stimulate. By attending the meeting and contributing to the discussion you may participate in defining the how, what, when and why of BECC activities in the years ahead.
