Around 40 experts from research, administration, and practice accepted the invitation from Rewilding Oder Delta e.V. in cooperation with Kiel Marine Science at Kiel University (CAU) to develop recommendations for the reintroduction of seagrass meadows in the Baltic Sea in a two-day workshop. In addition to exciting expert input, the focus was on exchange, cooperation, and shared experiences—a strong symbol for restoration in research and practice.
Successful expert workshop by Rewilding Oder Delta offers new impulses for restoring dynamic coastal ecosystems. At the invitation of Rewilding Oder Delta e.V., around 35 representatives from public authorities, science, conservation, tourism and land use gathered on the island of Poel and near Kühlungsborn, Germany, for a two-day workshop to develop recommendations for the restoration and protection of sand habitats along the Baltic coast. The focus: balancing conservation and human use while involving local actors from the very beginning – a forward-looking contribution to implementing the EU Nature Restoration Law.

“Two countries and one Oder Delta”, a beautiful 16-minute documentary by Emmanuel Rondeau, tells the story of rewilding in the Oder Delta, which is shared between Germany and Poland.

The health of every living organism depends on the effective communication and co-operation of its individual cells. It’s similar in nature: a multitude of species means biodiversity, and biodiversity is crucial for healthy ecosystems. To promote healthy ecosystems, we need to ensure that we also communicate and collaborate well in our own processes so that we function as a whole. For this reason, we have organised a kick-off workshop to engage stakeholders in the region. Only together can we ensure the long-term restoration of functioning ecosystems, sustainable land use and nature-based tourism through our activities. The planned measures will help to protect the natural treasures of our region, strengthen its resilience to climate change and thus preserve our livelihoods.
Rewilding Oder Delta workshop shows that the restoration of rocky reefs in the Baltic Sea is of great ecological importance for the protection of biodiversity and at the same time offers benefits for fisheries, tourism and coastal protection.
