About Us

Founded in 2011, Rewilding Europe has quickly established itself as an international initiative, operating at the frontline of European rewilding. From the Ukrainian Danube Delta in the east to the Greater Côa Valley in Portugal in the west, we are currently rewilding ten large landscapes across Europe, with the aim of expanding this to 15 by 2030.

Our goal is to see rewilding practised at scale right across the continent, delivering positive impact and meaningful benefits for nature, people, and climate. By inspiring, supporting and collaborating with a broad coalition of partners - from other rewilding initiatives and NGOs to philanthropic organisations and big business - we want to create a Europe that is far richer in nature and more resilient to climate change, and where healthy wildlife populations support thriving nature-based economies.
