The Danube Delta and the Healing Power of Nature
Directed by Emmanuel Rondeau for the Wilder Europe series, this short documentary explores the deep connection between people and nature in the Ukrainian part of the Danube Delta. The film follows the initiatives carried out by Rewilding Europe and Rewilding Danube Delta to restore ecosystems and support local communities, even in the difficult context created by the war in Ukraine. The documentary speaks about nature’s power to regenerate not only wild landscapes, but human lives as well.
Admission is free subject to availability.
Q&A with Marina Drugă
Biologist and director of Rewilding Romania, Marina is involved in some of the most important nature restoration projects in our country. With extensive experience in biodiversity conservation and European environmental policy, her work focuses on ecosystem restoration and reconnecting communities with nature.
