About the project

The CrossGov consortium consists of seven European partners from six different countries:

  • NIVA - Norwegian Institute for Water Research

  • UEF – The University of Eastern Finland

CrossGov aims to increase knowledge on how the coherence and intersections between marine-related policies and legislation affect the realization of the EU Green Deal targets for biodiversity protection and zero pollution, as well as climate change adaptation and mitigation.
