More than 25 people participated, coming from all over the country, representing, individually or collectively, ecological regeneration projects of different types and approaches, with the aim of encouraging debate and the sharing of ideas in this regard. The visit to these areas served precisely to be able to observe on the spot two examples of intervention and regenerative process that are very different from each other and that require different approaches and adapted on a case-by-case basis. It also served to introduce participants to the rewilding approach, explaining this new approach to ecological restoration and recovery and improvement of natural processes so that they can recover ecosystems themselves.

During the visit to these two rewilding areas, there were many themes within this approach that could be analyzed and discussed in group, through what was observed and learned: the challenges of forest replacement, the promotion of the regeneration of an autochthonous forest, the use of large herbivores (tauros, bisons, etc.), the hydrology and ecology of water bodies, the importance of certain species of flora in improving the quality of water bodies, the distribution and movement of certain wild species (eg. deer, roe deer, wolf, lynx etc.), encouraging rabbit recovery as a key process, reducing causes of disturbance to wildlife (eg poaching), behaviour and ecology of Sorraia herds in a semi-wild state already introduced by Rewilding Portugal and their impact on plant distribution and structure etc.
