Events
We organise policy training for ecologists, generally aimed at Early Career Researchers or anyone with an ecology background who is interested in environmental policy.
We host annual Pie and a Pint events which bring together ecologists, practitioners and policy makers, to discuss ecological evidence to advise upcoming policies.
We also organise expert workshops advising policy makers on current topics. You can see previous workshop outputs here.
If you would like to collaborate on an event, please do get in touch.
