"Biodiversity, climate stability and people’s relationship with nature have all
declined in recent decades. To fulfil the EU’s new Nature Restoration Law,
which requires the restoration of 20% of Europe’s degraded land and sea by
2030, it’s time to try something bold.
Enter the Endangered Landscapes & Seascapes Programme. The Programme provides
grants to projects across Europe, so that they can restore threatened
environments. Projects made possible by the Programme have preserved over
250,000 hectares of land and sea, and helped to protect over 100 threatened
species.
Across 14 restoration landscapes, these projects are bringing back nature on a
massive scale. From deltas in the Danube to Portuguese valleys, the Programme
is allowing nature-based, community-led methods to revive the natural world.
“We’ve realised that nature can restore itself,” says Nancy Ockendon, Science
Manager for the Programme. “For animals and plants to be resilient to climate
change, they need open, diverse space. Thinking at landscape and seascape
scales meets a lot of these needs.”"
