Genetic resources strategy for Europe
Abstract
The Genetic Resources Strategy for Europe is a product of GenRes Bridge2—a coordination and support action funded under the EU Horizon 2020 Framework Programme, involving 17 partner organizations representing a wide range of actors in plant, animal and forest genetic resources conservation and sustainable use in Europe and neighbouring countries. Central to the project has been a cooperation between the three European networks for plant, animal and forest genetic resources, ECPGR3, ERFP4 and EUFORGEN5, to identify synergies and joint actions to enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of genetic resources conservation and sustainable use activities in the region. The Genetic Resources Strategy for Europe is a key outcome of this collaboration and answers the European Commission’s call to “provide a framework in which the existing mosaic of European, national/regional structures can join forces to develop and implement ambitious approaches and strategies for the management of crop, forest and animal GenRes.”
