Healthy ecosystems are the foundation of all life on Earth. They give us clean air, fresh water, food, and the stability we depend on. Yet, for too long, nature has been pushed to its limits.
Now we face a choice: stand by as biodiversity disappears or take bold action and bring it back.
At BirdLife, we choose action. Across nine sites in Eastern and Central Europe, we are working with our Partners to revive damaged landscapes and return lost species. We are not just protecting what remains – we are bringing nature back to life.
It’s about more than just nature. It’s about people, too. Restoring nature means restoring balance.
Healthy ecosystems:
Absorb carbon
Prevent fires and floods
Clean our air and water
Provide food and livelihoods.
Help communities adapt to climate change and protect cultural traditions
And here’s the good news: restoration works. When done right, it transforms degraded landscapes, brings back species from the brink, and deliver lasting benefits.
