ECSA61: Bridging the gap between science and policy in estuarine and coastal marine biodiversity: the way forward

Event Location: Brussels, Belgium

Event Start: 24/08/2026

Event End: 27/08/2026

We invite you to participate in ECSA 61 and contribute your recent findings in all aspects of coastal and estuarine sciences. Building on the results of several Horizon Europe projects, it is a unique opportunity to show the most recent advances of coastal marine research and their applications for European and international policies.

For the first time ECSA invites you for a ‘Science-meets-Policy’ day (27 August 2026), during which you have the chance to discuss research findings and applications for a sustainable future of coasts with managers and decision-makers from Europe and all over the world, and the ways in which these can be used in current monitoring and assessment policies.

Deadline for Special Session proposals: 24 November 2025

The abstract submission system will open in January 2026

Abstract submission deadline: 6 March 2026
