Inspiring talks and 🗝️ contributions for biodiversity science & translation of scientific results to policy!

🎙️Excited to share a talk I recently had in the #sustainability podcast of Invest-in-Bulgaria News! It was inspirational to talk about #research & its role in #environmentalpolicy with the incredible young journalists dedicated to #positivechange! 🎧 Listen to the episode 👉 youtu.be/305ptToqARs?...

🌸On this International Day of Women & Girls in #Science, we honor the dedication of female researchers in the field of #biodiversity - driving #TransformativeChange, informing policy, & contributing to the SPSI! 🚀 Let’s continue to empower & support future generations in science! #WomenInScience

🔔 Let's set the priorities straight & start aiming for #ZeroWaste instead of #SizeZero! ❤️ My humble contribution 👇 ✅ >80% of my wardrobe is second-hand clothes ✅ I go shopping for clothes only when I need sth. concrete ✅I either donate the clothes I don't need or I reuse them in some other way.

🎉 So excited that we are strengthening our partnership with @reviewercredits.bsky.social! 💡 We remind #reviewers at our #journals to sign up on @reviewercredits.bsky.social & recieve extra recognition for their #peerreview contributions! 😉 Stay tuned for updates! #scholarlypublishing #publishing

An interesting free workshop by @bioagora.bsky.social, looking forward to attending!

This is really cool!

Happy New Year and welcome to #Schengen to Bulgaria 🇧🇬 & Romania 🇷🇴! In 2025, may we continue to tear down the barriers we don't need & be able to proudly uphold the ones we do! #travel #bulgaria #romania #winterwonderland #beautyandthebeast #christmasmarket #newyear #nolimits #beauty #urbanculture

The great team of @bioagora.bsky.social is off to improve the biodiversity science-policy interface through providing new smart and ethical tools for connecting biodiversity knowledge providers and knowledge users!

🔝 Counting down the days to 2025, we share our Top 10 #NewSpecies described in our #journals in 2024. 👌 As a bonus, to this selection of #animals, #plants & #fungi, we added 3 honourable mentions! 🧐 Visit our blog 👇 #biodiversity #taxonomy #zoology #entomology #botany #mycology #openaccess

Of the 365 GBF indicators, 110 (30%) can involve Indigenous Peoples, local communities and citizen scientists in community-based monitoring, 185 (51%) could benefit from citizen involvement in data collection and 180 (49%) require scientists and gov stats organizations. 📑 doi.org/10.1038/s418...

A great Horizon Europe funded project @bioagora.bsky.social dedicated to enhancing the biodiversity science-policy interface through creating the Science Service for Biodiversity is now on Bluesky!

A swift transition to zero waste and circular economy approaches is needed to tackle the projected increase in municipal waste. Look back at this UNEP International Environmental Technology Centre, report launched at #UNEA6. #GWMO2024: www.unep.org/resources/gl... #YearInReview

All eyes are set on today's #IPBES11 plenary. Fingers crossed for the 2 assessments to be adopted, as it is incredibly important for scientific knowledge about #TransformativeChange & #Nexus of #biodiversity + 🗝️ socio-economic processes to be delivered to policy🤞

Hooray! Goodbye, borders, goodbye, boundaries! As a Bulgarian 🇧🇬 national, I couldn't be happier hearing this news! 🙏❤️

Looking forward to 🎧 to the new episode and have a throwback on the old ones, why not?

Insightful summary of Dos and Don'ts in science journalism and science communication! Interesting open-access article! #OpenScience

Today is the official launch of #IPBES11! Following closely the dialogue on the 2 new assessment reports which will provide a much needed holistic perspective on 🗝️ issues!!!
