Lithuanian Biodiversity Research Forum (LBRF) is a network of institutions and societies of Lithuania that work on or are interested in biodiversity research, protection, sustainable use or dissemination of information. It was launched at 15 October 2004. Scientists, practitioners and policy-makers as well as all institutions working in the field of biodiversity are invited to take part in active exchange of knowledge and opinions within the Forum. LBRF represents the Bioplatform in Lithuania.

The Bioplatform project supports the existing European Platform for Biodiversity Research Strategy (EPBRS).

The EPBRS is a network of scientists and policy makers that work in different fields of biodiversity, which aims to improve the effectiveness and relevance of European biodiversity research, to contribute to European Research Area (ERA) for Biodiversity, to promote the dissemination of current best practices and information regarding the scientific understanding of biodiversity conservation, and to ensure that research contributes to halting the loss of biodiversity by 2010, as it is agreed in the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD).

Information on the EPBRS meetings and archives of their documents is available on the Bioplatform website.

On behalf of the European Commission, together with the Swedish Environment Protection Agency, the Bioplatform launched European Biodiversity Research Catalogue. The Catalogue is part of the directory services provided by the European Environment Agency (EEA) and is hosted by European Community Biodiversity Clearing House (EC-CHM).
