Partners

We are proud to bring together a diverse and committed consortium around RISE. The project connects universities, growers, businesses, regional organisations, public authorities, water managers, sector organisations and societal partners.

Together, they combine expertise in biodiversity, agriculture, innovation, value chains, spatial development and systems thinking. This diversity is essential to RISE: nature-inclusive transitions cannot be developed from a single perspective, but require close collaboration across ecological, economic and social domains. 

What makes the consortium particularly valuable is that partners are not only contributing knowledge and expertise, but are actively involved in co-designing, testing and refining the project’s tools, models and implementation pathways in real regional contexts. Their collective experience, networks and commitment provide the foundation for developing solutions that are scientifically robust, practically relevant and capable of being taken up beyond the project itself.
