Environmental Responsibility and Marine Spatial Planning: a workshop in St. Petersburg
The workshop is organized by the Jean-Monnet Project GRASS – EU governance of natural resources: geopolitics, regions and sectors, and by CBHE Erasmus+ project SUNRAISE – Sustainable Natural Resource Use in Arctic and High Mountainous Areas
and will take place at the Russian State Hydrometeorological University, St. Petersburg, Russia, September 25-26, 2018.
The aim of the workshop is to discuss two aspects of EU-Russia’s interactions on the natural resource governance in the Arctic, which are manifested through the following policy mechanisms:
- Marine spatial planning,
- Rankings and indexes of environmental responsibility and performance.
Aiming at the discussion of the EU Arctic ambitions, the workshop will focus on what this means for Russia and on possible interplays with its own Arctic agenda.
The workshop will bring together researchers and representatives of various stakeholder groups from Russia, the EU and associated countries.
