Nature Restoration Law

Nature Restoration Law

On 17 June, talks on the adoption of the Nature Restoration Law (NRL), a law aimed at restoring European nature, ended in Brussels. The NRL was approved. 20 countries voted in favour, six voted against (including Poland) and one country abstained.

The discussions that have taken place and continue to happen around the NRL are also being held among conservation scientists. Opinions are divided as to whether the assumptions of the adopted regulation are feasible and the documentation itself adequately prepared. However, scientists unanimously agree that nature conservation is a necessity and agree that action must be taken and new solutions, including legal solutions, must be put in place to achieve this important objective.

Our Institute is implementing a project to restore the wetlands of the Middle Nida Delta – a unique hydromorphological structure, historically characterised by a rich diversity of bird, mollusc and amphibian species. The originator, main author and co-ordinator of this LIFE-funded project is Dr Tadeusz Zając, who shares his experiences in restoration and his opinions on the Nature Restoration Law in interviews for Radio Kraków and Polskie Radio 24.

We encourage you to take a look at the press materials that were created in collaboration with scientists from our Institute:
