Working with local people and organisations across six locations to understand and influence how land across Europe is managed.
Central to the MOSAIC projects are six Policy Labs located in Belgium, Denmark, Hungary, Portugal, Switzerland and Europe-wide. MOSAIC’s Policy Labs are bringing together local expertise and the MOSAIC team’s modelling and land-use expertise to develop new and effective policies for sustainable land use.
Local Policy Labs are undertaking stakeholder mapping, policy context analysis and coalition building activities and engaging with researchers, policymakers, farmers, landowners and other relevant land-use stakeholders. Working closely with these stakeholders, coupled with data, case studies and state-of-the-art socio-economic modelling, will provide a holistic view of drivers and motivations behind land-use change
Lessons from each Policy Lab will be shared to enable local, regional and national decision makers to develop their own land use strategies which support the EU’s climate and biodiversity goals.
