Resource description:
An introductory guide to the MOSAIC project. MOSAIC is an EU-funded project that is bringing together twenty organisations for 4½ years to better understand and support sustainable land-use management practices across Europe.
By addressing the overexploitation and unsustainable management of land, the MOSAIC project aims to help Europe adapt to and mitigate the climate and biodiversity crises. To address these challenges, the MOSAIC project is researching why people currently use land the way they do and to what extent they consider climate change and biodiversity issues when making land-use decisions. The MOSAIC team will also work with local people and organisations in six case study locations to establish Policy Labs. Each Policy Lab will develop robust policy options and state-of-the-art modelling will be used to explore the impact of these different policies. The MOSAIC policy labs are located in: Belgium, Denmark, Hungary, Portugal, Switzerland, and Europe-wide. The lessons from MOSAIC’s research, modelling and stakeholder engagement will be made available online through a series of tools, which will support in developing and implementing innovative and effective policies.
