Site Description
The Navarino Environmental Observatory (NEO) is a pioneer in Greece as an international partnership, between the academic community and the private sector in the field of research and education on climate change and the environment in the Mediterranean region. (www.navarinoneo.gr). NEO started its full operation in 2010 as a collaboration between Stockholm University, the Biomedical Research Foundation of the Academy of Athens (BRFAA) and TEMES S.A.. The unique climate and landscape of the Messinia region makes it an ideal location for research on climate and environmental change. NEO has already become an international hub for frontline research and education, where scientists from all over the world meet to exchange knowledge and ideas.
