SONATA partners will offer their knowledge on project management on the highest level to help promote BIOS M&A staff into relevant members of European projects ecosystem.

During this workshop, we will focus on the spatial model being developed to help indentify optimal locations for nature-based solutions (NbS, such as flower strips) to maximize crop yield, pollinator diversity and soil organic carbon.

In this workshop, we will supplement the stakeholder list we made at the physical workshop, as well as discuss and finalize the Living Lab design, including proposed activities. During the final part of this workshop, we will conduct a role game, to try to think a little bit more like SONATA stakeholders to prepare ourselves for fruitful work in the Living Lab.

SONATA coordinator, Dr Tijana Nikolić Lugonja will present abstract titled “Monitoring of Nature Infrastructure – Skill Acquisition for Nature-based Solutions”, during the session The Green Transition of European Landscapes – from Ambitious Spatial Plans to Comprehensive Land Use Changes at the European Landscape Ecology Congress in Bratislava (2-5 September). The Congress will focus on Landscape Perspectives in a Rapidly Changing World. The congress themes underscore the importance of holistic, theoretical and empirical, data-driven approaches to understanding and managing of all types of landscapes in the context of rapid environmental and societal changes.

SONATA team will gather at the consortium meeting organized by UNIOVI in Mieres, Spain. During this meeting, the consortium will present and discuss the task progress during the first year of the project and plan the upcoming activities. The meeting provides a valuable platform for strengthening cooperation, exchanging knowledge, and aligning strategies to ensure the successful implementation of SONATA objectives.

BIOS team members dr Tijana Nikolić Lugonja, Ivana Pejović, Aleksandra Gašić Čolić will visit FIHAC for a research project management training. This visit aims to strengthen BIOS’s skills in coordinating complex research projects, improving planning and reporting processes, and ensuring the successful implementation of ongoing and future initiatives. The training will also provide an excellent opportunity for knowledge exchange and collaboration with FIHAC experts.
