Réserves Naturelles de France (RNF) is the professional network of the nature reserve managers in France. RNF has a 40-year-plus history of facilitation and capacity-building around Protected Area management and can rely on strong bonds with on-the-field Nature Reserve managers to test and promote pragmatic nature-based solutions. It has expertise in wetland conservation, and it addresses climate change adaptation in protected areas based on hands-on tools developed in pilot areas.

RNF will also contribute to testing and communicating sustainable and resilient headwaters management scenarios.
