The Monitoring Knowledge Exchange Network activates the existing network of key institutions, EU projects, and experts in the field of biodiversity monitoring. It thus works closely with the established networks of EuropeBON and Biodiversa+, also benefitting from policy-relevant links outside the EU with IPBES. The tasks within the Knowledge Exchange Network are linked to the Habitats and Birds Directives, the Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 and the Nature Restoration Regulation.
