About the Biodiversity category

Enhancing and protecting biodiversity across research campuses and estates.

Full description (category page):
This category is for sharing work, guidance, and ideas on how research institutions can support biodiversity. Topics may include:

  • Nature recovery plans and strategies

  • Habitat creation and enhancement (ponds, meadows, green roofs)

  • Biodiversity net gain in new developments

  • Monitoring and reporting biodiversity impacts

  • Partnerships with local authorities, NGOs, and communities

Biodiversity is closely linked with Buildings, Space & Design (physical estate planning) and Civic & External Collaboration (community partnerships). Here the focus is on nature-positive action and integrating biodiversity into research environments.
