Making benefits and costs of nature restoration visible.
NatuRISE brings together science, data and stakeholder knowledge to better understand the benefits, costs and wider impacts of restoring nature — and to support better-informed restoration decisions.
Restoring nature brings benefits — but also costs and trade-offs
Nature restoration can support biodiversity, ecosystems, economies, health and wellbeing. But its benefits and costs can vary across places, sectors, people and over time.
Decision-makers need better evidence to understand what restoration can achieve, where impacts will occur, who may benefit or face costs, and which measures can deliver the greatest overall benefits.
From fragmented evidence to better restoration decisions
NatuRISE will develop new evidence, enhanced assessment methods and decision-support tools to bring the different dimensions of nature restoration together.
The project will connect environmental, economic and social perspectives and work with stakeholders at local, regional, national and EU levels to make the results relevant and usable
Evidence and tools designed for use
NatuRISE will generate new knowledge, data, models, assessments and tools to improve understanding of the socio-economic impacts of nature restoration and support better-informed restoration decisions.
NatuRISE connects research, evidence and decision-support with the people and organisations involved in understanding, planning, implementing and assessing nature restoration.
Better solutions start with better conversations
NatuRISE will work closely with stakeholders throughout the project to ensure that its research addresses real-world needs and produces results that can be used in practice.
There will be opportunities to share knowledge, contribute to co-design and co-creation, participate in workshops and events, test emerging approaches and follow the development of NatuRISE tools and results.
