Description

RESTORE is a partnership for sharing knowledge and promoting best practice on river restoration in Europe. It is supported by LIFE+ funding from the European Commission and works closely together with the European Centre for River Restoration.

RESTORE supports river restoration practices across Europe by:
- Sharing river restoration knowledge to policymakers, river basin organisation and practitioners
