Rewilding benefits
Europe and its people face a wide range of challenges, including biodiversity decline, rising global temperatures, and declining opportunities for rural economies. Applied at scale, rewilding can help to address these challenges simultaneously.
Recovering nature to full health can mitigate scale and impact of global warming, enhance biodiversity, and create new sources of income for communities. Rewilding also helps nature to deliver a range of other benefits that are essential to our existence, such as clean air, fertile soil, good health, wellbeing and resilience to disease.
The need for nature and the wide range of benefits it provides has never been greater. This year, we aim to demonstrate how joining forces to rewild now is our best hope of realising a world where we can all thrive. #RewildingTogether
Thriving Together: webinar & panel discussion!
Wild nature is an essential element of a prosperous and healthy society. At Rewilding Europe we envision a wilder, healthier future where people and nature thrive alongside each other. But how do we get there? Learn more from the experts in our webinar “Thriving Together”, dedicated to World Rewilding Day 2025.
Taking place on March 20, 2025 at 1500 CET, everyone is welcome to join this inspirational discussion! Topics will include how rewilding helps reconnect people with nature, how communities and wildlife can successfully coexist, and how nature-based businesses can contribute to thriving landscapes.
How to get involved
Become part of World Rewilding Day 2025
There has never been a better time to get involved in rewilding. The rewilding movement is about co-creating a wilder, better tomorrow. Whether you’re a citizen, entrepreneur, land manager, policymaker or scientist, there’s room for you to get involved.
On this day, organise an event or join existing events to gather together with like-minded people and inspire new rewilders to join the movement! Check out our World Rewilding Day Guidelines 2025 for more tips, info and resources on how to celebrate this special day!

Take action, let’s join forces!
Informing and inspiring people is a key part of rewilding and of World Rewilding Day! You can play an important role in this in many different ways.
It all starts by raising awareness and sharing the hope that rewilding offers to both nature and people. Join the #RewildingTogether conversation by downloading and sharing our social media cards and inspiring people around you to join forces to shape tomorrow’s wild!

Let’s rewild together
Are you looking for more inspiration on how to celebrate World Rewilding Day? We’ve put together a playlist if you want to learn more about rewilding yourself or want to share rewilding knowledge and examples and educate others on rewilding.
We’ve also prepared a set of posters, which you can use for your event or if you would like to spread awareness about World Rewilding Day.
And have you already visited a rewilding area or initiative? Maybe this is the moment to plan your rewilding journey to one of our rewilding landscapes or check out rewilding initiatives close to home.
Become an active rewilder
At Rewilding Europe we want to see rewilding taking place on an increasing scale across Europe. As we work to make Europe a wilder place, we are always looking to collaborate with conservation organisations, public or private institutions, foundations, companies and private individuals.
Are you already involved in rewilding as an initiative and looking to share knowledge and experience? Then we invite you to join the European Rewilding Network!
Are you a young professional or rewilding enthusiast? Then we warmly invite you to join the next generation of rewilders and become a member of the European Young Rewilders!
The principles of rewilding
Rewilding practitioners from across Europe have co-formulated a set of principles that characterise and guide rewilding in a European context. We follow these rewilding principles as we work towards a future where people and nature flourish alongside one another.
