#HorizonEU project that focuses on #rewilding as an NBS to restore seascapes while fostering climate resilience, biodiversity & societal benefits.
🌿 Students + seagrass + hands-on fieldwork = inspiring learning in action!
Master’s students from the Ecosystems and Marine Bioproduction and Aquaculture, Environment, Society programmes joined our team in Bourgneuf Bay to map #seagrass meadows & their bivalve communities

At #EuropeanResearchersNight, our Cádiz team turned rewilding into a game! 🎲🌊🌿
Visitors played “Salt Marshes and Flamingos”, deciding the fate of Cádiz Bay’s salt pans while learning about coastal restoration.

🌿 Our first campaign took place in Cádiz Bay 🇪🇸!
We measured CO₂ fluxes, biodiversity, blue carbon & more across 3 saltmarsh sites — from natural to abandoned to accidentally rewilded
These insights will help us understand how to restore coasts for #climate & #biodiversity

This Sunday is #WorldMigratoryBirdDay🐦
Every year, millions of birds cross borders, oceans & cities. The theme Shared Spaces: Creating Bird-Friendly Cities & Communities reminds us that birds don’t just need wild places. At REWRITE, we’re restoring #wetlands to give them place to land, refuel & rest
🌿What’s holding back large-scale restoration in Europe?
This piece explores the persistent barriers to ambitious nature recovery efforts & calls for systemic changes to unlock restoration at scale
