&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="text-align: -webkit-auto;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Date:&amp;nbsp;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"&gt;		&lt;/span&gt;21-22 May 2012&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;The annual European Maritime Day will be organised in Gothenburg this year.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;The purpose is to highlight the importance of seas and oceans and the challenges facing maritime regions and sectors. Several events are organised across Europe, and a main event is held in one place, in the form of a high level meeting and a stakeholder conference.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;For more information visit the event&amp;rsquo;s website: &lt;a href="http://www.emd2012.se/"&gt;www.emd2012.se&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;
&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="display: inline ! important;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;strong style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-size: 12px;"&gt;Date: &lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;25-26 September 2012&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Location:&lt;span class="Apple-tab-span" style="font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; white-space: pre;"&gt;	&lt;/span&gt;Kristianstad, Sweden&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;This workshop aims at sharing practical and scientific knowledge to achieve sustainable agriculture in flooded environments through win-win solutions considering multiple risks, functions and benefits. It aims to explore how feasible it is for stakeholders from different sectors involved with flood mitigation (e.g. human safety, agricultural and spatial planning sectors) to consider solutions outside their traditional remit of work, in particular ecosystem services provided by wetland environments. Given this demand, how can the agricultural sector become more sustainable by providing the (ecological) services needed for flood mitigation? &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12px;"&gt;The discussions will be based on a few case studies taken from the Baltic Sea region. The outcomes from this workshop will inform &amp;rdquo;The Baltic COMPASS&amp;rdquo;1 project (Dec 2009-Dec 2012), which is a platform for 22 partners from the whole Baltic Sea region, aiming to develop more effective policy, innovation, best practice, scientific scenarios and facilitate investments. The workshop will bring together different stakeholders from the Baltic Sea Region who work at implementing level, as well as relevant actors at national level.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
