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.
