Rewilding on the urban fringe: challenges and opportunities

Rewilding on the urban fringe: challenges and opportunities

What could be the natural and social benefits of rewilding landscapes on an urban fringe? The University of Cumbria is a partner in the Natural Capital Lab established by the Lifescape Project in the Highlands.

With the help of remote sensing approaches provided by AECOM, the project aims to gain a fuller understanding of the rewilding process, and the ecological and social benefits. This webinar introduces this project and asks what could be learned from a NC Lab on an urban fringe? With Prof Ian Convery (CNPPA), Roger Leese (Lifescape Project), Dr Jamie McPhie (CNPPA) & Chris White (AECOM).
