Our Position
We are committed to making the best scientific evidence accessible to decision-makers.
Our mission is to generate, communicate and promote ecological knowledge and solutions. We present the scientific evidence, rather than campaigning on particular issues. We welcome inquiries from anyone who uses ecological knowledge in their work.
As the voice of the UK’s ecological community, we have a unique role in:
Informing Policy
We communicate the value of ecological knowledge to policymakers and promote evidence-informed solutions.
Synthesising Science
We bring together our members’ expertise to make the best scientific evidence accessible to decision-makers.
Supporting Members
We help members to build their skills, develop their careers and enhance the policy impact of their work.
