You are a guest - this is where I live
The Wadden Sea World Heritage Site is a huge wild habitat in the middle of Europe. With the video campaign "You are a guest - this is where I live. The Wadden Sea." we invite you to be a good guest in nature.
How would you feel about someone letting loose in your home? In our video series, five representatives of the animal and plant world of the Wadden Sea turn the tables on us!

So, behave!
Help preserve the Wadden Sea World Heritage Site today and for future generations. Don't litter, keep your distance to resting seals and birds, stay on the marked paths, leave nature in nature, and put the dog on a leash - and share this message with others!
Thank you say...
...the brent goose, the ringed plover, the sea holly, the seal, the oystercatcher, and all other animals and plants of the Wadden Sea!
A guest in World Heritage
How does it feel to be welcomed as a guest by the Wadden Sea? In this video, people who live with and for the Wadden Sea talk about their connection to this unique natural landscape. They give us an insight into the fascination of the Wadden Sea and take us into a world where heaven and earth share the same stage.

Sponsoring
The campaign "You are a guest - this is where I live. The Wadden Sea." was produced in the framework of Interreg VB project PROWAD Link. 15 project partners in Denmark, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway and the United Kingdom working with interested SMEs used the “nature-business-benefit-cycle” concept to develop new, sustainable products and offers in the pilot regions of the Wadden Sea (DK, D, NL), Geiranger Fjord (NO), Wash & North Norfolk Coast (UK). The 2018-2022 project is co-funded by and carried out in the framework of the Interreg North Sea Region Programme under the Programme Priority 1 “Thinking Growth”. The programme is funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) of the European Union.
