Partnership working offers solutions to address biodiversity loss in Cornwall

Making Space for Nature is privileged to be partners with The University of Exeter's Environment and Sustainability Institute (ESI).

The ESI is an interdisciplinary centre leading cutting-edge research into solutions to problems of environmental change. Based on the University's Penryn Campus, their research and educations straddles themes that aim to enhance people's lives by improving their relationships with the environment. From its inception the ESI has been made possible through funding from the European Regional Development Fund Convergence Programme and the South West Regional Development Agency, which means that providing benefit to Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly are at the heart of what it does.

Earlier this year Making Space for Nature featured in the ESI video about the benefits of working with partners. This film will be part of Exeter University’s Greener Futures Conference on 12 June 2021 (day 2). The conference is a chance to listen and engage with world-leading researchers and teachers as they host a series of talks and conversations about how we can build a fairer, greener future. Topics being covered include building a circular economy, the role of space in supporting environmental intelligence, creating positive tipping points and food security.
