Our starting point

People care for the landscape.
The landscape supports people.

A healthy environment and good relationships are essential to a fulfilling and resilient life.

We are developing a vision for long-term pilot programmes at regional level. Within one area, we aim to connect landscape management, human health, the local economy and energy resilience, and transfer the lessons learned to other regions.
