Education for ecosystem restoration raises awareness about the importance of healthy ecosystems and teaches effective restoration practices. Through education, communities, policymakers, and individuals gain the knowledge needed to implement restoration projects, understand the impacts of their actions, and foster a culture of environmental stewardship. By equipping people with information and skills, education helps drive collective efforts to repair and conserve ecosystems, ensuring more successful and sustainable outcomes.
This course has been developed to equip practitioners with the capacity to design, plan and implement monitoring systems for forest landscape restoration interventions.
The Rewilding Academy is a wonderful place to explore online courses, resources, and restoration projects. The Rewilding Academy is also an Action partner of the UN Decade for Ecosystem Restoration and is coordinating two Restoration Challenges together with Plant for the Planet and the Environment Agency Abu Dhabi (UAE). These challenges aim to build local capacity for ecosystem restoration and rewilding, with the ultimate goal of addressing the pressing issues of climate change and biodiversity loss.
Through its high-impact publications, learning course, Standards tools, world conferences, webinars, and various other resources, the Society for Ecological Restoration (SER) seeks to facilitate and expand knowledge sharing within the global restoration community.
