Relevant challenge

Understanding who benefits, who bears costs and where impacts of restoration occur

What is it?

NatuRISE will produce EU-wide and case-study assessments of the potential socio-economic impacts of nature restoration measures, including benefits, costs, trade-offs and distributional effects.

Why is it useful?

Restoration measures can affect different people, sectors and territories in different ways. The assessments will help users understand where impacts occur, who may be affected and how benefits and costs may be distributed.

Who is it for?

EU policy-makers · National authorities · Regional & local authorities · Restoration practitioners · Researchers · Land managers

What can you use it for?

  • Compare restoration measures
  • Explore benefits and costs across locations
  • Examine distributional and territorial impacts
  • Identify potential trade-offs and synergies
  • Inform restoration targets and implementation choices
  • Support policy impact assessment

How does it work?

The assessments will combine NatuRISE models, indicators, socio-economic evidence, ecosystem-service information and spatial analysis to examine impacts across different scales and stakeholder groups.

Where is it being developed or applied?

Assessments will cover EU-wide analyses and the four NatuRISE case studies.
