When nature can do the job: Fostering co-benefits for people and the environment in view of the Nature Restoration Regulation (English)
When nature can do the job: Fostering co-benefits for people and the environment in view of the Nature Restoration Regulation (English)
The passing of the EU Nature Restoration Regulation was a landmark decision for nature. This first-of-its-kind legislation aims to restore significant areas of degraded terrestrial and marine ecosystems across the EU member states. It implies an upscaling of ecological restoration far beyond current practice, which will require novel perspectives and solutions that are environmentally effective, economically feasible, and socially acceptable.
Join the European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA), Horizon Europe projects wildE, REWRITE, WILDCARD, and the Society for Ecological Restoration Europe at this pioneering debate which will discuss the opportunities and challenges for implementing restoration in a way that "lets nature do the job".
The event will bring together leading European experts from the research and policy sectors to consider where and when nature could help create ecosystems that support biodiversity, store carbon and enhance livelihoods which will enable both nature and people to better cope with the growing impacts of modern climate change.
