'''Title:''' ''Towards an Integrated Marine and Maritime Science Community''
<br>
<br>
'''Summary''': The Aberdeen plus interest group joined forces with the Venice Platform group to take further steps towards integrating the marine, maritime and coastal research sectors in Europe. The goal is to establish a sustainable and long-lasting partnership forum (European Marine and Maritime Forum), based on shared interests and shared leadership, and to test it on regional seas and pan-European basis. 

The process will contribute to developing interactions between partners (the research community, industry, regional authorities, civil society and other stakeholders) starting from regional scales to broader issues shared with EU-neighboring countries. This, being in line with the European Strategy for Marine and Maritime Research, will underpin the future integrated EU Maritime Policy. The action will be supported by the already established key structures and will constitute a forum which will be an operationally open structure.
