Joint ventures for scalable community benefits from rewilding
Highlands Rewilding is one of 27 projets to be awarded funding under the Facility for Investment Ready Nature in Scotland (FIRNS) scheme, co-funded by The National Lottery Heritage Fund in partnership with the Scottish Government and NatureScot.
The outcome of ths 18 month project will be a series of investment-ready business plans for community joint ventures. The joint ventures will capitalise on environmental improvements from rewilding, and the valuable ecosystem services they generate. They will be a mechanism for involving more people in nature restoration, boosting the economy, skills development, job creation and cohesion in local communities. Read more about this project here.
