General project description
The COMBINED project explores how climate, biodiversity, and human wellbeing interact in Dutch landscapes—grasslands, forests, and urban nature. These ecosystems offer potential for biodiversity recovery, climate resilience, and healthier environments but lack an integrated management approach. COMBINED will 1) analyze biodiversity-climate interactions, 2) assess the impact of existing strategies, and 3) identify and address barriers to implementation. The project aims to develop harmonized methods, critically examine policy inertia, and create widely supported visions for sustainable landscape management. By breaking policy deadlocks, COMBINED will enable adaptive, integrated solutions for resilient landscapes in the Netherlands. More here: https://www.combined-project.eu/
