IBIS – Integrated Aquatic Resources Management Between Ireland, Northern Ireland and Scotland – is a project running from August 2011 to June 2015 based between Northern Ireland, the border regions of Ireland and Western Scotland. It is run as a partnership between the Loughs Agency, the University of Glasgow and Queen’s University Belfast. The project will assist in the environmentally sustainable economic development of aquatic resources within the project area. To achieve this goal, funding of £6m from the European Union’s INTERREG IVA Programme with additional support from the governments of Ireland and Northern Ireland, and from the University of Glasgow, will fund: - 70 years of applied research through doctoral and masters’ projects; - 16 continuing professional development (CPD) courses and 12 knowledge transfer (KT) workshops; - A new teaching facility at the Scottish Centre for Ecology and the Natural Environment on Loch Lomond. This project will leave a legacy of expertise in sustainable aquatic resource management. |
