What role do conflicts play in renaturation? What conflicts can be expected in Austria in the future? How should these be addressed, resolved and transformed? And how should conflict-sensitive approaches and participation be integrated into the restoration plans currently being developed? As part of the Austrian Forum for Peace 2025 (annual peace conference at Burg Schlaining), a group of representatives from politics, administration, research, civil society/NGOs and practitioners worked on these questions.

At this event, we will present the results of this process and recommendations to decision-makers on the topics of conflict, participation and renaturation. The presentation will also include a panel discussion with experts and workshop participants. Furthermore, there will be an opportunity to discuss the results together.

Date: Monday, 13 October, 9:30–11:00 a.m.

Location: Vienna (exact location to be announced)
