Call for Participation: Early-Career Perspectives on Ecosystem Services Science

by Categories: Collaboration calls, News

Calling all early-career researchers and practitioners in the ESP community! 🌍

The field of ecosystem services is evolving fast — and the people shaping its next chapter are often the ones least asked what they think. Young Ecosystem Services Specialists (YESS), ESP’s early-career collaboration unit, launches a global survey to capture our collective experiences, systemic barriers, and future priorities to help bridge the gap between science and policy..

“Early-Career Perspectives on Ecosystem Services Science” aims to capture the experiences, systemic barriers, and priorities of early-career professionals across the ES field — helping bridge the gap between science and policy from the ground up.
Whether you’re a student, postdoc, junior researcher, or early-career practitioner working on ecosystem services or related fields, your voice matters here.

Webinar: Future scenario analysis and planning of biodiversity and ecosystem services by using the Nature Futures Framework from local to national scales

Poster for the event described on this pageDate: 21 March 2025, 10:00 CET / 18:00 JST

The Nature Futures Framework (NFF) is a flexible tool designed to support the development of scenarios and models of desirable futures for people, nature and Mother Earth. Following the 2016 Scenarios and models assessment, the IPBES scenarios and models expert group developed this framework. The NFF has since been applied to diverse research questions in equally diverse locations. This webinar is a preview of the session T6 a ESP 11 World Conference and part of the project “Development of an Integrated Assessment Model linking Biodiversity and Socio-Economic Drivers, and its Social Application” (IAM-B).
