FACE is delighted to announce the release of its 8^th Biodiversity Manifesto Report.

The FACE Biodiversity Manifesto is a substantial database of hunting-related conservation projects, providing inspiration and strong evidence of how hunters contribute to habitat restoration, protected areas, species monitoring and much more.

This report is based on 498 conservation initiatives by hunters and highlights some of the best projects of 2022.

POLICY RELEVANCE
In June 2022, the European Commission published the proposal for a Nature Restoration Law, the first-ever piece of legislation that explicitly targets the restoration of Europe’s nature. In light of the new proposal, this report focuses on hunters contributions to nature restoration.

The report highlights a wide range of relevant conservation projects such as habitat restoration activities in South Tyrol (Italy), saving Greece’s native Pheasant, supporting Iberian lynx recovery in Spain, conserving the Common Eider in Finland and Red Grouse in protected areas in Ireland.
