The Conservation And Sustainability Consortium of AcaDEmic institutions (CASCADE) brings together higher education institutions from across the UK working on finding sustainable and socially just solutions to one of the biggest challenges facing humanity: the biodiversity crisis.

We believe that only through sharing resources and knowledge and acting in partnership with other research institutions across the world, government agencies, NGOs and industry, will we be able to work towards addressing this challenge.

  Researcher

CASCADE is a network of researchers who believe in collaborating across institutions to improve our ability to contribute to international biodiversity policy.

If you are in the UK and your institution is a member, contact your focal point to get involved. If not, contact us to get your institution started.

If you're in an institution outside the UK we are keen to see how we can collaborate.
