The 2025 Bright Award Winner is Emilie Reuchlin, marine biologist, co-founder and director of the Doggerland Foundation (the Netherlands).
In recognition of her advocacy for the North Sea, Emilie Reuchlin was selected as the 2025 winner of the Bright Award for Environmental Sustainability.
Reuchlin is a longtime advocate for the North Sea, most recently through the Doggerland Foundation, which she co-founded to restore biodiversity in the North Sea region, especially the Dogger Bank, a nutrient-rich submerged sandbank called “the ecological heart of the North Sea.” This vital habitat and marine life spawning ground lies at the center of one of Europe’s most industrialized and overexploited marine regions.
For Reuchlin, reimagining humans’ relationship with the natural world means more than preserving what’s left – it means actively restoring what’s been lost, holding governments accountable to the laws they’ve made, and ensuring that the “voices of ecosystems” are considered in the decisions that shape their future.
“The North Sea has been treated like an industrial wasteland,” Reuchlin says. “We’re supposed to have protections, but in reality, we’ve been fighting for years just to enforce the bare minimum.”
