Land Use and Natural Capital

We are leaders in sustainable land use and natural capital research, delivering insights and solutions that balance environmental, economic, and societal needs.

The International Land Use Study Centre (ILUSC) is central to our efforts, providing a global platform for interdisciplinary research, knowledge exchange, and capacity building. Through ILUSC, we address critical challenges in land use planning, ecosystem services valuation, and natural capital accounting, fostering collaboration across borders to promote sustainable practices. Our research explores innovative approaches to land management, assessing the value of natural capital while developing strategies that enhance biodiversity, mitigate climate impacts, and support rural livelihoods.

What we call our land, soil, water, animals and plants. All of these elements together form ecosystems.
An innovation centre focused on making a difference: enabling just transitions in land use and promoting high-impact land-based science.
