Welcome to the RESTORE4Cs project!
Modelling restoration of wetlands for carbon pathways, climate change mitigation and adaptation, ecosystem services, and biodiversity co-benefits.RESTORE4Cs mission is to support the implementation of Climate and Biodiversity policies in the context of the European Green Deal, by:
- gathering effectiveness data on restoration and land use management actions;
- structuring a European Community of Practice (ECoP);
- upscaling models and integrative assessment tools;
- co-designing a multi-actor approach.

The Restore4Cs School Competition
This School Competition is an informal and playful
education activity designed to introduce your classroom to basic
concepts of ecology of coastal wetlands.
A serious game will be launched as part of the dissemination and engagement activities of the project RESTORE4Cs.
How to participate
Learning Objectives
By the end of the RESTORE4Cs School Competition, your students will be able to:
- define the concepts of ecosystem and ecosystem services
- describe structural and functional characteristic of wetlands
- assess the current extent and state of European wetlands
Learning Materials
Do you want to prepare at best for the Serious Game School Competition ?
Deepen your knowledge about coastal wetlands with our supporting learning materials: find out why these ecosystems are so important and what can affect them.
In our learning materials, pay attention to the “main impacts” section and get familiar with the Restore4Cs pilot study sites. Which are they? Where are they located?
Get ready for the Serious Game challenge!
Who is invited to participate
- Teachers in natural or social sciences, English and CLIL, citizenship and environmental education;
- Students aged 12 and over, across Europe, who will be mentored by their teachers.
Why participate

- Quiz your class and discover science facts about us and coastal wetlands;
- Improve awareness and attitude towards the environment – to which we all belong!
- Meet teachers and students from across Europe and learn from peers;
- Find the support of a European network of researchers.
