Biodiversa is an ERA-net (European Research Area) project where 19 European research funding agencies seek best practice as a basis for cooperation in order to strengthen European research.

This particular project aims at setting up efficient trans-national co-operation in the field of biodiversity research funding. Also contributing to the EU Biodiversity Strategy, BiodivERsA will allow the funding agencies to collate existing activities, compare future strategies and recommendations of consultative bodies and systematically explore opportunities for future collaboration.

There are approximately 60 other ERA-nets in different themes.
