Showcasing the wild
The European Nature Trust develops media to connect people with nature and inspire its protection. We work with top photographers and filmmakers to co-produce media projects, documentaries, podcasts and feature films that raise awareness of crucial issues in conservation.
As part of our ‘Noise for Nature’ strategy, our films serve as gateways to the world of conservation. Please enjoy a hand-picked selection of films we’ve either funded, produced, or co-produced.
Riverwoods: An Untold Story
We all depend on rivers. They provide the water we drink; transport the nutrients that people and wildlife alike depend on; their flows and banks provide habitat for native species; and perhaps most importantly, they are natural features of wonder, beauty and mystery. Learn how rivers connect land and sea, and how we can come together to restore them.
