High-Level Political Meeting on Baltic Eutrophication and Agriculture
CCB • April 19, 2007
On 19-20 April 2007 a Meeting of High-Level Representatives from Ministries of Agriculture and Environment of the Baltic Sea Region countries (CBSS) will take place in Saltsjöbaden, Sweden. The meeting title: Land and Sea: more cooperation, less eutrophication, will discuss measures to reduce the heavy nutrient load (50% of the total N&P- load to the Baltic Sea) from the Baltic agricultural sector.
We support the Ocean Act objectives for improving coherence, coordination and effectiveness of EU ocean governance. However, we emphasize that the Act must deliver truly ecosystem-based management and that reaching Good Environmental Status (GES), as defined in the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (MSFD), should be established as a cornerstone of the Act.
We are looking for a Project Coordinator to join our team at the CCB International Secretariat.
