SpongeBoost works across seven case study sites, testing best-practice approaches and innovative solutions in floodplains and peatlands. These sites reflect Europe’s diversity, stretching from Estonia, Germany and Belgium to Spain and Portugal, including the Azores, and encompass a range of climatic, economic and social conditions.

Each site has its own challenges and opportunities. By applying tailored solutions, the project aims to improve water retention, strengthen ecosystem resilience, and support sustainable land management. The sites were selected to provide insights that can be relevant across Europe, showing how practical approaches can adapt to different landscapes and communities.

Through the #SpongeBoostSites social media campaign, audiences can explore each case study in depth. The campaign features regular posts that highlight the unique characteristics of each site, the specific challenges they face, and the opportunities for improvement. It also shares the progress the project team has made so far, from initial assessments to practical measures already being implemented, and outlines the next steps planned for each area.

By following the campaign, readers can gain a comprehensive view of how SpongeBoost is applying innovative solutions in field conditions. The posts provide insight into how these approaches are tailored to different landscapes and communities, demonstrating how local actions can contribute to healthier ecosystems, improved water management, and more resilient environments across Europe.
