Examples for projects and initiatives on paludiculture for climate and nature protection are manifold. The conference “Climate protection and peatland use: potential in Germany” gathered stakeholders and stimulated exchange.

Based on presentations of best practice examples from peatland rich federal states the following topics were discussed:

• What are the experiences with paludiculture in Germany?
• How do peatland rich federal states fund and stimulate paludiculture projects?
• What are obstacles and potentials in the implementation of paludiculture?

A separate day of excursions offered possibilities to visit best practice examples of paludiculture implementation in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
