WBP Conference 16 and 17 October, Aberystwyth University
We enjoyed a very successful conference in Aberystwyth and it was great to meet everyone and witness the enthusiasm and passion for nature recovery in Wales.
Collaboration and innovation featured strongly and engaging with people and groups who think differently with respect to conventional nature recovery approaches. Other areas highlighted at the conference included fostering emotional connection and telling good news stories through a variety of mediums including the arts. Accessing green finance without losing ecological integrity and developing a simple but robust monitoring system also featured prominently.
Thank you to all contributors and participants and of course the organisers. You’ve all made the WBP Conference 2025 a great success!
