From Mines to Meadows: Restoring Postwar Landscapes


From Mines to Meadows: Restoring Postwar Landscapes

15:00 ‐ 16:00

  • Podiumsdiskussion

How can postwar landscapes be safely restored, and communities rebuild after conflict? Hear from experts on land mine clearing, soils, restoration, and livelihoods in affected regions.

In postwar contexts, land can either perpetuate danger or foster peace. Mines and unexploded ordnance render fertile ground unusable, delaying farming, resettlement, and ecological recovery. Yet regreening initiatives offer pathways to restore livelihoods, rebuild trust, and strengthen resilience. As conflicts collide with climate stress, the urgency of reclaiming and restoring damaged land has never been greater.

Join our online panel as experts discuss on the importance, challenges, and strategies for reclaiming and restoring postwar landscapes.
