The Workshop will include keynote addresses about the existing objectives and ongoing work to prevent, halt and reverse the degradation of ecosystems globally and at a regional European scale.

Given the objectives of sharing experiences about ecosystem restoration, we will present an analysis of the case-studies of ecosystem restoration from around the globe, while specific positive experiences will be shared by our invited speakers. This work is based on a recent open call as part of the Network Nature Semester Theme of ecosystem Restoration and which has received several case-studies of effective implementation.

Tow speakers from the European Commission and the United Nations Decade of Restoration are being contacted to share their opinion on this timely and important topic in the workshop.

Finally, participants will be invited to discuss the conditions for implementing ecosystem restoration and to promote uptake and uptake of restoration activities as a valid nature-based solution. The discussion will be facilitated to evaluate how restoration activities can be mainstreamed while engaging citizens and creating business models.
