Beneath Europe’s mudflats, the #lugworm quietly keeps #coastal ecosystems alive 🪱🌿 It moves sediment, boosts oxygen, and supports entire food webs... all from underground! When it disappears, the system weakens. Discover more ⤵️

Halfway there, and plenty to build on 🌿 Last week, our General Assembly brought together partners, Demonstrator Sites leaders and members of our Advisory Board and Scientific Steering Committee for two afternoons of exchanges, updates and ideas. A strong moment to connect the dots and look ahead 💫

🌿 12 Days, 12 Artworks: Rewilding through Art Starting next week, we’ll share 12 selected artworks reimagining #rewilding, from ecology to culture and imagination 🎨 Follow us on LinkedIn for the full series and stories behind the artists www.linkedin.com/company/rewr... ph credit: Evgenia Emets
