EU FP6 Sub-Priority 1.1.6.3: Global Change and Ecosystems
(There are only the issues listed, which are relevant for the German agricultural research.) The research on global change and ecosystems has to be considered as a major support to the EU strategy for Sustainable Development which has been decided in 2001 at Göteborg and which has been enlarged to an international scale in the context of the Johannesburg Summit on Sustainable Development (SD) in 2002. The programme of activity offered by the Sub-Priority 'Global Change and Ecosystems' will strengthen the necessary scientific knowledge for the future orientation of the SD strategy and the 6th Environment Action programme; it will also provide the socio-economic tools and assessments and the overall management practices. Furthermore it will ensure their implementation at the enlarged EU level and, when relevant, at the world level.
