Centre for Landscape Regeneration

  • decorative

Embedded in Cambridge Zero and part of the Cambridge Conservation Initiative, the Centre for Landscape Regeneration seeks to provide knowledge and tools to regenerate the British countryside.

How? By using cost-effective nature-based solutions that harness the power of ecosystems to provide broad societal benefits, including biodiversity recovery as well as climate mitigation and adaptation.

Our researchers at Centre for Landscape Regeneration work closely with farmers, landowners, conservation groups, policy makers and local communities to address ecological threats such as extinction, flooding, drought and pollution, with an emphasis on whole-system approaches and a holistic, long-term view that encompasses the ecology of a region. 

Implementing sustainable landscapes at meaningful scales is challenging, and progress remains uncertain. With the resources to engage fully with all stakeholders and opportunities, we are determined to explore and deconstruct the financial, institutional, and social barriers that can obstruct transformative change.  

In all our work, our vision is clear: that a resilient and sustainable zero-carbon world is attainable.
