What if we could grow prosperity around the world without damaging our planet? What if local communities benefit and contribute to protecting biodiversity, rather than being excluded?
What if farmers were paid fairly for growing food in ways that care for the soil, water, and climate? Real-life sustainability challenges are messy and complicated. They affect people, ecosystems, and economies all at once. That is why solving them takes more than just one way of thinking. To tackle today’s big sustainability challenges—like climate change, loss of biodiversity, or creating fair and sustainable food systems—we need minds that understand nature but also how human communities work. Our unique programme brings these worlds together.
