Bridging the gap between humanity and nature restoration

Our vision

Nature: So incredibly diverse and complex. Can we even hope to understand it in a human lifetime?

Nature’s balance: It’s everchanging; established and disrupted more times than we can count. Yet, this constant cycle of balance and imbalance is a key to life.

Nature and humanity: Humans are Earthkeepers. Yet, our activities can easily disrupt nature’s balance, and re-balancing requires significant resources.

Our intention: We are entrepreneurs of sustainable and nature-friendly solutions. We learn about nature through traditional and state-of-the-art methods and technologies. What we research, we apply and educate.

Pillars

Nature Balance: Restoration

We implement holistic projects, from local to global level, aimed at restoring and revitalising landscapes to include as many natural processes and sustainable ecosystems as possible, while respecting human (food) self-sufficiency.

Nature Balance: Geodata

We use both traditional and the latest methods and technologies to push the boundaries of science and research. For example, we collect, analyse and interpret remote sensing data such as satellite and aerial imagery and use Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to support landscape decision-making and planning.

Nature Balance: Knowledge Transfer

We raise public and professional awareness about the environment, the importance of sustainable management of natural resources and the latest scientific methods and results; we organise courses and seminars to transfer knowledge, experience and skills in these areas.

Nature Balance: Research

We come from an academic environment where research was our daily bread. We have experience with participation and leadership from dozens of projects, including European Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe. Research remains one of the springboards of our activities, but we want to focus also on its application, implementation and contribution to direct impacts on the landscape.

Nature Balance: Heritage

We explore and promote the environmental value of places, their history and memory. We identify and protect the spiritual uniqueness of landscapes, including the study of the historical and cultural aspects of places of special significance to the human soul and the memory of communities.

Nature Balance: Collaboration

Cooperation is in our DNA. Nature Balance cannot do everything on its own; it works best in cooperation with other people, be they organizations or individuals.
