Societal developments with a link to ecology and ecological research are easy to find. How can the Netherlands Institute of Ecology (NIOO-KNAW) support these? How will we share and use ecological knowledge? To achieve this, the institute will from now on receive help from the new Societal Advisory Board.

The Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences announced the appointment of three members of the Board of Management, effective 1 October 2024. The current director of NIOO Geert de Snoo has been appointed Director of Research Policy, Adriana Esmeijer Director of General Affairs, Iwan Holleman Director of Operational Management. The new Board of Management succeeds the Academy’s acting Board.
