Missions
Joint demonstration
of approaches and solutions to address nutrient pollution
SEACURE aligns with two EU Missions: Mission “A Soil Deal for Europe” and “Restore Our Ocean and Waters” a new way to bring concrete solutions to some of our greatest challenges. They put research and innovation into a new role, combined with new forms of governance and collaboration, as well as by engaging citizens.
The project seeks to promote integrated approaches and explore synergies between these Missions, thereby advancing the objectives and impacts of the two EU Missions.
The outcomes resulting from this joint approach will contribute to the implementation of the European Green Deal, the Farm to Fork Strategy, the Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, the Soil Strategy for 2030, the Bioeconomy Strategy, and the EU Action Plan: ‘Towards Zero Pollution for Air, Water, and Soil’ and also to the objectives of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD) and the Water Framework Directive (WFD) – including in terms of Good Environmental Status and restoration of aquatic ecosystems – and the Marine Spatial Planning Directive (MSPD).
Driving Progress
Towards Missions’ Goals
In line with the impact-driven approach of the Missions, SEACURE aims to meet—and even surpass—the shared objectives of both Missions with regards to nutrient management:
(by at least)
(by at least)
(by at least)
At the EU level, the project will capitalize on the frameworks provided by both Missions and their portfolio of projects and initiatives—such as the BlueMissionMed stakeholder community—alongside collaborations with Associated Regions to extend its reach to stakeholders in new basins. This progress will be driven by the engagement of new farmers and land and water authorities adopting the validated approach, as well as the continued participation of stakeholders actively working to reduce nutrient pollution.
