  abstract = {{C}umulative human impacts have led to the degradation of marine ecosystems and the decline of biodiversity in the {E}uropean and contiguous seas. {E}ffective conservation measures are urgently needed to reverse these trends. {C}onservation must entail societal choices, underpinned by human values and worldviews that differ between the countries bordering these seas. {S}ocial, economic and political heterogeneity adds to the challenge of balancing conservation with sustainable use of the seas. {C}omprehensive macro-regional coordination is needed to ensure effective conservation of marine ecosystems and biodiversity of this region. {U}nder the {E}uropean {U}nion {H}orizon 2020 framework programme, the {M}ar{C}ons {COST} action aims to promote collaborative research to support marine management, conservation planning and policy development. {T}his will be achieved by developing novel methods and tools to close knowledge gaps and advance marine conservation science. {T}his action will provide support for the development of macro-regional and national policies through six key actions: to develop tools to analyse cumulative human impacts; to identify critical scientific and technical gaps in conservation efforts; to improve the resilience of the marine environment to global change and biological invasions; to develop frameworks for integrated conservation planning across terrestrial, freshwater, and marine environments; to coordinate marine conservation policy across national boundaries; and to identify effective governance approaches for marine protected area management. {A}chieving the objectives of these actions will facilitate the integration of marine conservation policy into macro-regional maritime spatial planning agendas for the {E}uropean and contiguous seas, thereby offsetting the loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services in this region},
