Exciting first meeting today with the resident artists who will be working at our six Action Sites!
Art in WaterLANDS goes further than communicating the project's work, but rather aims to generate new ways of seeing and understanding #restoration. 💡💚

Fact 1🌾More than 1/2 of the 🌎economy depends on nature
