The network's aim is to prompt the prioritisation of nature and its restoration within the higher education sector, including in their operations and supply chains, on their campuses, and within the cities where they operate. This network will form a major contribution to the UN Decade of Ecosystem Restoration, the post-2020 Biodiversity Framework and the Sustainable Development Goals.
We need to move urgently from degrading nature to restoring it. Universities have a substantial role to play in this quest for nature-positivity: They nurture the minds of future leaders, create knowledge and networks of thinkers, and directly impact the planet as land-holders and consumers of resources. Uniting universities for ecosystem restoration has impact beyond the walls of any given institution, into the wider community within which they are embedded, and beyond.
