We are thrilled to present the 4th edition of the European Dam Removal Award, celebrating the most inspiring riverine barrier removal projects in 2024 with a prize of 20.000 euros. Removing barriers to restore rivers teeming with fish and thriving communities is close to our hearts, and we cannot wait to hear your story!
Barrier removal comes in all shapes and sizes, and each one has a remarkable story to tell. This award isn’t necessarily about the tallest dam or the longest culvert removed. What truly matters is your project’s journey – how it all started, the driving forces behind it, the challenges you conquered, and most importantly, the social and environmental impacts of the removal. Your unique story is what inspires and makes a difference!
