As an expected outcome of the project, we anticipate to improve current knowledge and management capacity of the associated partners, for the promotion and implementation of actions towards the protection, conservation and restoration of wetlands as nature-based solutions. Consequently, a dynamic user-oriented Transfer Plan will be proposed in collaboration with our associated partners, for the adoption of measures for wetlands at local, regional and national level, and more broadly for the European Mediterranean region, to leverage the significant services they provide in combating climate change.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-3abd80c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"3abd80c\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-205c81f\" data-id=\"205c81f\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6b747d6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"6b747d6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"138\" src=\"https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wetland4Change_LOGO_WEB_1200X162-1024x138.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-9747\" alt=\"Wetland4Change Logo\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wetland4Change_LOGO_WEB_1200X162-1024x138.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wetland4Change_LOGO_WEB_1200X162-400x54.jpg 400w, https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wetland4Change_LOGO_WEB_1200X162-768x104.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wetland4Change_LOGO_WEB_1200X162-24x3.jpg 24w, https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wetland4Change_LOGO_WEB_1200X162-36x5.jpg 36w, https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wetland4Change_LOGO_WEB_1200X162-48x6.jpg 48w, https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/Wetland4Change_LOGO_WEB_1200X162.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1ebf2ec elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1ebf2ec\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3>Partnership Structure<\/h3><p><strong>Coordinator:<\/strong> Department of Ecology and Landscape Architecture, University of Forestry (Bulgaria)<\/p><p><strong>Partners:<\/strong><\/p><ul><li><a href=\"https:\/\/ltu.bg\/en\/faculty-of-ecology-and-landscape-architecture\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Department of Ecology and Landscape Architecture, University of Forestry<\/a> (Bulgaria)<\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/ekby.gr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Goulandris Natural History Museum &#8211;

This plan will be based on the results of the carbon sequestration assessment and flood impact mitigation from the five case studies.<\/p><p>Finally, EKBY will implement the pilot case in Greece, focusing on Lake Kerkini and over 80 smaller wetlands in the Strymonas basin. The two wetland-based solutions, carbon sequestration and flood impact mitigation, will be mapped and evaluated and their application at three policy levels will be explored in close collaboration with the associated partners (Special Managing Authority of the Strategic Plan of the Common Agricultural Policy 2023-2027 of Greece, Regional Unit of Serres, and Municipality of Irakleia). Through meetings with the associated partners and technical trainings with project partners, EKBY will propose solutions and best practices for the conservation and restoration of wetlands, which can be adopted by the corresponding authorities at all three policy levels to improve climate change adaptation and mitigation. Additionally, EKBY, in collaboration with the Department of Ecology and Landscape Architecture of the University of Forestry in Bulgaria, will attempt to evaluate the two wetland-based solutions in the cross-border Strymonas basin.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-c36f3f0 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"c36f3f0\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-67c8bfd\" data-id=\"67c8bfd\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e251866 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e251866\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/KERKINI_ANATOLIKO_ANAXOMA_low.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"KERKINI_ANATOLIKO_ANAXOMA_low\" data-elementor-lightbox-description=\"Lake Kerkini, East embankment\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6OTcxOCwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL2VrYnkuZ3JcL3dwLWNvbnRlbnRcL3VwbG9hZHNcL0tFUktJTklfQU5BVE9MSUtPX0FOQVhPTUFfbG93LmpwZyJ9\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-lpZicp5e\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\u039b\u03af\u03bc\u03bd\u03b7 \u039a\u03b5\u03c1\u03ba\u03af\u03bd\u03b7, \u0391\u03bd\u03b1\u03c4\u03bf\u03bb\u03b9\u03ba\u03cc \u03b1\u03bd\u03ac\u03c7\u03c9\u03bc\u03b1\" title=\"\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/KERKINI_ANATOLIKO_ANAXOMA_low-768x576.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-9718\" alt=\"Lake Kerkini, East embankment\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/KERKINI_ANATOLIKO_ANAXOMA_low-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/KERKINI_ANATOLIKO_ANAXOMA_low-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/KERKINI_ANATOLIKO_ANAXOMA_low-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/KERKINI_ANATOLIKO_ANAXOMA_low-24x18.jpg 24w, https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/KERKINI_ANATOLIKO_ANAXOMA_low-36x27.jpg 36w, https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/KERKINI_ANATOLIKO_ANAXOMA_low-48x36.jpg 48w, https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/KERKINI_ANATOLIKO_ANAXOMA_low.jpg 1320w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figcaption class=\"widget-image-caption wp-caption-text\">Lake Kerkini, East embankment | Photo archive EKBY<\/figcaption>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/figure>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-d60afc0\" data-id=\"d60afc0\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8069e38 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8069e38\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<figure class=\"wp-caption\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/ekby.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/KERKINI_FRAGMA_LITHOTOPOS_low.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"KERKINI_FRAGMA_LITHOTOPOS_low\" data-elementor-lightbox-description=\"Lake Kerkini.
