In 2026, the conference will focus on practical measures aimed at restoring the ecological potential of the Odra Valley and River Basin and strengthening the resilience of the Oder ecosystem to climate change. We will focus primarily on the role of free-flowing rivers as a prerequisite for the restoration of the natural environment and the improvement of safety.
Representatives of institutions and organisations involved in nature conservation, water management, spatial planning and climate change adaptation from the Czech Republic, Poland and Germany will be invited to attend. We expect experts, water managers, planners, local government officials, naturalists, water users, civil society organisations and activists to take part in the debate.
Please register using the REGISTRATION FORM (space is limited for the in-person version).
Simultaneous translation will be provided at the conference in the following languages: Polish / Czech / German. The event is free of charge.
The conference is organized by the EkoRozwoju Foundation in cooperation with the association Arnika from the Czech Republic and BUND from Germany, in the frame of the project “Strengthening international cooperation and civil participation in the protection of the Oder River”, funded by the German Federal Ministry for the Environment (BMUKN) as part of the EURENI (European Environment Initiative) program.
