March 2026
Welcome to our March edition of Inside OTWO, where we continue to share concise and inspiring snapshots of environmental developments shaping our community and the wider region.
This month’ s edition highlights the upcoming fifth anniversary of Eco Festival Gibraltar, which returns bigger than ever with a three-day programme under the theme Together for Tomorrow. We also share information on The Observatory, a new data platform designed to support better decision-making across Gibraltar and the Campo de Gibraltar by turning real-time information into practical insight for a more resilient future.
Alongside these positive initiatives, we reflect on the growing environmental challenges facing our region and beyond. From the severe impacts of Storm Leonardo across Spain and Portugal, to the quiet but alarming loss of biodiversity affecting Europe’ s ecosystems, and concerns that Europe’ s environmental momentum may be slowing, this month’ s stories highlight the urgency of sustained action and long-term commitment.
Together, these updates capture both the opportunities and the pressures defining today’ s environmental landscape, the innovation, collaboration, and community spirit driving progress, alongside the realities that remind us why this work matters. As always, we hope these bite-sized insights offer a clear perspective on the steps being taken, and the collective effort needed, to build a greener, more resilient future.
