Restoration
Education
Advancing global capacity and education through science and societal learning
Around 40% of the Earth’s land is already degraded, threatening half of global GDP. We need to restore these landscapes now – but how?
Landscape restoration is a transdisciplinary skill that the planet desperately needs. But never before has it been taught as a single, comprehensive curriculum – until now.
We work together with leading higher education institutions to develop blended courses and curricula covering everything that tomorrow’s landscape leaders need to know.
This is Restoration Education. Read our concept note to learn more!
