What we do

In currently 89 projects around the world, the Wyss Academy for Nature brings together researchers with local knowledge bearers and stakeholders to turn ideas into action. We combine scientific and traditional knowledge to find solutions that benefit both people and nature. 

Our activities center on four overall topics. Click below to read about our unique approach to each of them – and for detailed information on the projects. If relevant, a project may appear on more than one topic page.
