ECNC

People and nature interact strongly. In order to stop the decline of biodiversity and to maintain our physical well-being, we need to understand what motivates society. ECNC applies insights from the social and behavioural sciences to challenges involving the conservation of biodiversity.

Through various complementary activities, this ECNC programme seeks to increase understanding of the social and cultural context of conservation and improve skills of policy makers and other stakeholders at all levels in Europe in strategic and interactive communication. It contributes to effective implementation of nature and biodiversity policy through for instance advice on development of effective communication, organization and facilitation of stakeholder consultation processes and training in communication.
