Coastwatch Europe (CWE) protects wetlands by raising public awareness of their value, and demonstrating practical ways to save them. CWE is an international network of environmental groups, universities and other educational institutions, who in turn work with local groups and individuals around the coast of Europe. Coastwatch Europe has participated at hundreds of events since the 1980’s, facilitates surveys of the coast, litter, seaweed, and advocates for Marine Protected Areas, amongst other actions.
