Seeking consortium and scientific partners for nature restoration Living Labs and a developing international research network

The c-ECO Institute seeks coordinators, restoration researchers, Living Lab operators and partners in monitoring, modelling, finance, governance and education for proposals under HORIZON-NATURE-2027-02-02 and HORIZON-NATURE-2027-02-03.

Our aim is to contribute to European restoration projects while building scientific partnerships for our planned Amazon, London, Geneva and Tromsø Labs. We are particularly interested in connecting territorial evidence with financial and institutional responses, and supporting knowledge exchange and locally adapted applications through our developing Fellowship programme.

For 02-02, we seek partners to co-design and test contributions within ecosystem restoration Living Labs. For 02-03, we seek collaboration on shared methods, governance, capacity building and transfer across the European restoration network.

We bring the developing TDR–TFP framework, the SIL evidence architecture and a proposed research connection through Manaus, Brazil, where a flood-resilience proposal remains pending.

As a US organisation, participation would be subject to the topic conditions and an agreed funding route. We do not assume entitlement to EU funding or commit to unfunded delivery.
