The tentative conference programme can be foundhere. A preliminary list of speakers is available online.

With this call for contributions, we invite the submission of abstracts for oral and poster presentations for the BioClim Wetlands conference! We are interested in contributions that demonstrate good practice in implementing nature-based solutions addressing climate change in European riverine and coastal wetlands from a scientific, policy and practical perspective.

Contributions

 Contributions are welcome from practitioners, policy advisers and scientists, and ideally collaborations of these groups demonstrating successful partnerships working towards the protection and restoration of European riverine and coastal wetlands. We further invite cross-sector and cross-border collaborations demonstrating integrative approaches to riverine and coastal wetland governance. We hope to get a broad representation of related issues and solutions from across Europe.

Poster presentations will take place during a specifically designated poster presentation session on the first and second day of the conference giving the presenters an opportunity for discussions.

Oral presentations will be held within the eight interactive sessions (two presentations per session) on day 2 of the conference.
