For example, the project partner Tornator Plc provided one of its peatland restoration sites as a research and demonstration area. The project team held a restoration demonstration at the site, showcasing the planning and practical implementation of restoration activities. Researchers gathered materials for doctoral studies and created visual materials for educational videos during the demonstration.<\/p>\n<p>The project also produced a series of instructional videos and podcasts, where experts from companies and forestry organisations shared their insights and expertise. The series explores the restoration of drained peat lands, the selection of suitable sites for restoration, and key considerations for planning and implementing restoration measures.<\/p>\n<p>The target audience for the series includes peatland restoration planners, machine operators, and students in environmental, forestry, and forestry machinery fields at various educational levels. It also provides valuable information for landowners interested in restoration and the public.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.uef.fi\/turvahiili\/\">About &#8211; TurvaHiili (in
