Shape the programme with us

Since our 'Save the Date', we have been working hard behind the scenes. Preparations for the second edition of the European Power to the Peatlands conference are in full swing, and we are excited to share our progress and invite you to take an active role.

Our mission: From 'what' to 'how'

The core ambition of Power to the Peatlands 2026 is clear: to serve as a catalyst for the implementation of the European Nature Restoration Regulation (NRR).

Our focus is not just on the theory (the 'what'), but primarily on the practice (the 'how'). We are bringing together scientists, policymakers, land users, the private sector, and communication experts to formulate concrete, feasible solutions for peatland restoration.

Get involved: Call for sessions and ideas

A conference that truly connects is one we build together. Do you have an innovative idea for an interactive workshop, a specific theme that must be addressed, or a suggestion for a session that directly links science to practice?

We want to hear from you! Please contact: info@powertothepeatlands.com. 

Mark your calendar: 2 February 2026

On Monday 2 February 2026 we will open

• Call for Abstracts: We invite you to present your work. Whether it is scientific research, a practical case study, or a policy success story, we are looking for contributions that highlight the relevance to peatland restoration practice. Deadline for abstract submissions is 1 March 2026.

• Registration: From this date, you will be able to officially register for the conference.
