About us
One national voice for rewilding.
Rewilding Switzerland is a non-profit association founded to connect, support and represent the rewilding movement across the country.
Our purpose
Why we exist
Rewilding Switzerland's purpose is to promote rewilding in Switzerland. It supports rewilding initiatives in their development, operations, communication, fundraising and networking, and represents the rewilding movement at national level to public authorities, media, international partners and the general public.
From our draft statutes [UPDATE ONCE ADOPTED]Despite many local efforts and strong public support, no organisation is dedicated to connecting and representing rewilding at national level. We were founded to fill that gap — following models that have worked for Rewilding Europe and Rewilding Britain.
