The European Commission has launched a Call for Evidence on the upcoming revision of EU rules for protecting the marine environment, including the Marine Strategy Framework Directive, MSFD.
The initiative aims to assess what has worked so far, where implementation has fallen short, and how EU legislation can better support the health and resilience of European seas.

This is a chance for researchers, civil society, industry and other stakeholders to share experience and evidence that can inform the next phase of EU marine policy.

The call is open for feedback via the Commission’s portal link below:

Forward your feedback by 9 March 2026.
