Sandy beaches, from the surf zone to the dunes, connect land and sea. They support unique biodiversity and provide benefits people rely on, including recreation and tourism, coastal protection, and fisheries. Yet management often prioritises appearance and short-term convenience, which can degrade habitats and accelerate biodiversity loss.

The ongoing climate and biodiversity crises suggest that simply protecting species or ecosystems is insufficient and broader ecosystem restoration is needed. We hypothesise that depopulation,
Forest restoration and agroforestry are key nature-based solutions to biodiversity loss, climate change, and declining rural livelihoods. In the Albertine Rift of Central and East
There is a worldwide decline in wild species and ecosystems. However, we can reverse biodiversity loss by addressing consumption patterns and values, as well as

FLOODTRAIN advances Europe’s Nature Restoration Regulation (NRR) by translating floodplain science into practical, evidence-based training that accelerates policy-aligned, landscape-scale restoration. By focusing on floodplains –
Grasslands are among the largest terrestrial ecosystems, yet are highly threatened due to long-term transformations such as fragmentation, degradation, and land-use change across Eurasia. Addressing
Our food system is a major driver of biodiversity loss. The concept of ‘restorative aquaculture’ entails a form of food production that also provides ecological
