Held on September 3rd and 4th, 2024, the first Rewilding Voices edition focused on the “Potentials of rewilding”.

This interview features the Fundación Internacional para la Restauración de Ecosistemas (FIRE), sharing the organization’s vision of rewilding potential and funding opportunities, as well as one of its case studies and a personal rewilding story.

Rewilding Voices is an initiative from the wildE project. It involves a series of filmed interviews and discussions with a small number of participants about rewilding in relation to different topics, such as agriculture, economy, etc. During the scope of the project, wildE is hosting several dialogues that will contribute to the debate around rewilding, bringing together different views from wildE partners and other relevant stakeholders to explore pathways for its upscaling.
