The European Marine Board (EMB) is an international organization that determines research priorities and strategies related to European seas, ensures cooperation among its members, and aims to carry out studies related to the seas on a common level. The organization previously served as an Expert Board of the European Science Foundation (ESF), but in 2016 it decided to leave the ESF and continue its activities as an independent organization working in the field of environment and sea. The organization, which has the mission of conveying the outputs obtained from scientific research on the seas to decision-makers, is one of the scientific and technological guides of Europe in marine research.
The European Marine Board continued its activities after it became an independent structure in 2016, and our institution continued its participation in the activities of the organization.
Membership of the Organization provides benefits in terms of the participation of TÜBİTAK MAM Environment Institute researchers in the Framework Program projects concerning the Eastern Mediterranean, Aegean and Black Sea coasts, the direction of the projects, and the promotion of the studies through representative participation in the Organization's regular meetings.
