Welcome to the 2nd AnaEE Science Conference: Ecosystem Science For a Resilient Future
When: September 29 – October 1, 2026
Where: Palais de l’Europe, Menton, France
AnaEE-ERIC (Analysis and Experimentation on Ecosystems) announces its second international science conference, bringing together leading researchers and policy experts to address critical challenges facing global ecosystems.

AnaEE Environmental Rising Star Award
Workshops and Policy Dialogue
Interactive workshops will cover FAIR and Open Science practices, an interactive policy session with Plan Bleu, stakeholder engagement, technology foresight workshop, and early career research activities. A senior leadership roundtable for linked ERICs will address strategic priorities and collaborative opportunities across research infrastructures.
AnaEE-ERIC’s collaborative approach generates continental-scale insights into how ecosystems respond to environmental pressures, directly informing policy decisions under the European Green Deal and UN Sustainable Development Goals. AnaEE-ERIC’s research supports evidence-based regulations for sustainable agriculture, climate adaptation strategies, and ecosystem restoration, while its integration of experimentation and modelling allows policymakers to test interventions before implementation.
By translating experimental findings into practical management solutions, AnaEE-ERIC ensures that European environmental policy is grounded in robust science, accelerating the transition toward a sustainable, resilient future.
