Rewilding Knowledge Hub

The Rewilding Knowledge Hub is a new EU web platform with multi-language support and online community that will be created for the purpose of sharing knowledge and resources on rewilding. It will host a repository of project outputs and additionally provide an online shared workspace for collaboration and co-creation in support of multi-actor engagement activities. It will be developed as part of OPPLA (the EU Repository of Nature-based Solutions) with its own bespoke identity, user interface and functionality.
