We address critical biodiversity and ecosystem service questions and knowledge gaps through ground-breaking, applied research. Working with our wide, global network of partners, our work is at the forefront of international scientific endeavours.  

From modelling and analysing biodiversity futures, to developing and assessing indicators of change, we focus on harnessing the best-available knowledge and cutting-edge technology to provide the scientific insights needed to drive positive change. 

Through our applied research, we help conserve and restore nature, increase the effectiveness of nature-based solutions to multiple global challenges, and inform nature-positive outcomes for the global economy. 

Our scientific work assesses conservation needs and outcomes and helps to create a sustainable future through policy impact and enabling transformative change across all sectors of society.
