Context 

Mediterranean wetlands are among the most biodiverse and threatened ecosystems in the world. They play a key role in climate change adaptation, water security, territorial resilience, and the livelihoods of local communities.

Despite their importance, access to funding remains a major challenge today, in a context where financial resources are becoming increasingly scarce, for local actors, civil society organisations, and public authorities engaged in wetland conservation and restoration.

In this context, MedWet is organising a regional webinar aimed at:

• Better understanding existing funding priorities and mechanisms;
• Sharing proven and innovative financing models;
• Strengthening the capacity of project leaders to approach donors and structure strong proposals.

Target audience

• Civil society organisations active in environmental conservation
• Wetland site managers (MedWet Managers network and beyond)

Expected outcomes

• Improved understanding of available funding opportunities in the Mediterranean
• Concrete recommendations to enhance the quality and impact of project proposals
• Strengthened connections between donors and project applicants

Format and language

• Online webinar (Zoom): Link
• Duration: 1.5 hours
• Working languages:  English (subtitles in French)
