Tóchar Midlands Wetland Restoration in collaboration with Photo Museum Ireland are delighted to announce an exciting new photographic commission that will highlight the important work of women in nature restoration in Ireland today. 

Ireland is undergoing a profound shift. Our ecosystems are under pressure and degrading rapidly. As we move toward a low-carbon future, we must not only restore degraded landscapes, but we must also ensure the transition is fair, inclusive, and community-led. Every day, people all over the island work hard to halt biodiversity and climate crises and reverse the trend. Women are playing a vital role in this transformation. They are restoring peatlands and wetlands, regenerating farms, protecting rivers, building local initiatives, shaping policy, educating communities, and reimagining what stewardship can look like in a changing Ireland. Many do this work without public recognition, quietly fighting for their environment and community, leading the way in nature restoration and building resilience for the next generation. 

This national photography campaign will honour and amplify the work of women in nature restoration in Ireland. The work of the commission will be shared through a free public programme that includes exhibitions, community conversations, and publication.
