The 4th session of the Community of Practice for Restoring Wetlands will take place online on 4 November 2026, from 10:00 to 12:00 CET, bringing together researchers, practitioners and project partners to exchange knowledge on wetland restoration, carbon sequestration and climate change adaptation.
Organised by MedWet, the session will feature contributions from the EU-funded projects RESTORE4Cs and Wetland4Change, highlighting recent scientific developments and practical solutions that demonstrate the importance of wetlands in addressing environmental and climate challenges. Carlos Rochera, from the University of Valencia, will present recent developments and research outcomes from the RESTORE4Cs project, including additional scientific resources and publications produced following the project’s completion in 2025.
RESTORE4Cs is one of the EU-funded projects contributing scientific knowledge and tools to the BESIDE Platform. The Community of Practice provides an opportunity to promote knowledge exchange, strengthen connections between researchers and practitioners, and encourage the uptake of scientific evidence in wetland conservation and restoration.
