RELATE4NATURE aims to
Drive sustained and systemic change in socio-economic systems, human-nature relations and ecological governance
01
The Challenge
Economic systems that value nature mainly for profit and resources drive the biodiversity crisis; we need new approaches that recognise its true value and importance to our wellbeing. To achieve this, the consortium will co-develop, co-pilot and co-evaluate new combinations of models in four areas.
02
The Approach
Through its multi-actor approach, the project will establish eight local pilot alliances across Europe, Ecuador and New Zealand, which will serve as testbeds for alternative socio-economic models, valuation methods and policy innovations.
03
The Collaboration
Each alliance will bring together local authorities, businesses, researchers, communities and civil society, fostering dialogue across distinct geographical and institutional contexts, enabling cross-case learning and strengthening decision-making capacity among public and private stakeholders.
