On the first day, we recieved updates from CINEA and our monitors from ELMEN-EEIG. The second day offered the opportunity to apply the Hartijoki method in the field to restore a cleared river channel and observe Freshwater pearl mussels in Kvarnb\u00e4cken, visit a rebuilt road culvert in \u00d6re\u00e4lven and even pet moose calves at \u00c4lgens hus in Bjurholm. On the final day, several LIFE projects presented how they work with communication, restoration measures and socio-economic impact in their respective areas. Karin shared insights on successful river restoration within LIFE CONNECTS and Improve Aquatic LIFE.    <\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_4123\" style=\"width: 677px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-4123\" class=\"wp-image-4123 \" src=\"https:\/\/improveaquaticlife.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/IMG_1612-650x433.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"667\" height=\"444\"><p id=\"caption-attachment-4123\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Picture from the \u00d6re River.
