EcoAdvance European Project

Kick-off meeting of DALIA!

(Danube Region Water Lighthouse Action; Topic: HORIZON-MISS-2021-OCEAN-02-02)

The DALIA project shows how much PEOPLE MAKE A DIFFERENCE when it comes to success in #FreshwaterRestoration.

EcoAdvance (Horizon Europe) Partner Zuzana Boukalova addresses 9 demonstration sites from Danube basin region, keen to discuss the multidisciplinary approaches leading to the successful restoration of the Danube catchment environment and the approaches needed to improve the restoration of fresh and transitional water ecosystems.

WHAT projects and scientific research has made a difference in your country?

Recognizing Urgency: Restoration NOW!

Great joint Alternet and Society for Ecological Restoration (SER) webinar!

Europe is recognizing the urgency of restoring our environmental assets. The new #NatureRestorationLaw will put the law where theory, guidance and directives stood alone. Cogent and helpful presentations from Maurice Hoffmann, Jordi Cortina-Segarra, Karolina D'CUNHA, and Kris Decleer  ---all very relevant whether your focus is on #NBS or #EcosystemServices.

But will real requirements replace moving targets?
How do we make sure the new law facilitates the integration of science and policy?
 
The key ingredient? The People. Building on the successes of the past and leveraging them to accelerate restoration depends on the People who know how!! 
 
Help EcoAdvance (Horizon Europe) find the people who have brought #freshwaterrestoration to this threshold and whose advice, experience and best practices are needed NOW.
 
Join the consultation effort so the leaders in your country get the credit they deserve for bringing us this far.

We are launching!

If you are interested in #FreshwaterRestoration — we need your ideas!

EcoAdvance (Horizon Europe) is a coordination and support action project designed to identify and showcase successful freshwater restoration projects and the people who made them successful in each of the Member States.
It’s a non-traditional, people and community focused project –
It's freshwater restoration from the perspectives of the people who did it, the scientists whose research blazed the way, the communities who changed their neighborhoods and the public officials who have championed getting it done.
 
How do we quantify –or even understand – return on investment and success in freshwater restoration? Clearly #ecosystemservices is an important methodology. But is it all in the numbers?

Join the conversation! Help identify the people and projects who have made freshwater restoration successful in your country.
Let’s talk about what drives success in freshwater restoration.
