One hundred priority questions for landscape restoration in Europe

One hundred priority questions for landscape restoration in Europe

In order to identify and prioritise possible research directions, the Endangered Landscapes Programme convened a group of more than 40 experts in landscape restoration to identify ‘‘One hundred priority questions for landscape restoration in Europe’. The experts met to identify the one hundred questions that, if answered, would make a substantial difference to our ability to restore terrestrial and marine landscapes in Europe.

The group came from a wide range of European governmental and non-governmental conservation organisations and universities, as well as independent ecologists and land managers. The hope is that these questions will act as the basis for researchers and policy makers to identify new directions, as well as support funders and programme managers in allocating funds and planning projects, resulting in improved understanding and implementation of landscape-scale ecological restoration.
