Description: 

An introductory guide on the production and use of biodiversity scenarios in decision-making contexts, elaborated in the framework of BiodivERsA 2017-2018 joint call with the Belmont Forum

BiodivERsA and the Belmont Forum, in the framework of their Joint Action on Scenarios of biodiversity and ecosystem services (see information on the joint call 2017-2018 here) produced a Handbook on the use of biodiversity scenarios in support of decision-making. This handbook is intended for any individual interested to learn about biodiversity scenarios, and in particular participatory scenario design and the use of biodiversity scenarios in decision-making. It builds on a variety of sources (literature, expert and non-expert consultations, interviews) to provide a general understanding of scenarios of biodiversity, concrete examples of their use, and a directory of relevant resources to go further on the topic.
