Nature faces ongoing devastation and the imminent risk of the European Union weakening its environmental laws. As wildlife has no voice to protest, human intervention is essential. To tackle this situation and ensure a future where society and the wild coexist, the Irish Wildlife Trust has joined the European ‘Hands Off Nature’ campaign to defend these regulations, whilst promoting policy reforms and ambitious legislation in Ireland.
To achieve environmental restoration, the project empowers the public through educational programmes in schools, participation in citizen science and awareness-raising on social media. On the ground, this mission is carried out through the reintroduction of wild species and the management and expansion of a network of nature reserves across the country, always operating within a robust organisational structure and supported by its local branches.
