13^th SERE Conference - European Conference on Ecological Restoration

These are crucial times for ecological restoration in Europe and globally. Ecological restoration is essential to combat climate change, protect biodiversity and reverse desertification, and thus contribute to human wellbeing. Under the UN Decade of Ecosystem Restoration (2021-2030) and the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030, we can reverse the global environmental crisis. Yet, to obtain all the benefits that ecological restoration can provide and ensure a fair distribution of wealth, we must promote its practice and strive to increase the quality of restoration programs. From 5 to 9 September at Alicante (Spain), will take place the “13^th SERE Conference” and meetings will be held for a week to assess recent advances in ecological restoration theory and practice and discuss future priorities.
