Wyss Academy for Nature

We are working for a new and sustainable relationship with nature. As an academy we are a place of innovation and collaboration. Our work brings human well-being into harmony with biodiversity protection, climate change and sustainable land use. In this, we test concrete solutions and develop scalable projects worldwide. By involving diverse people with a common goal and by translating scientific findings into practice, we create new pathways to sustainability. Our team consists of researchers, diplomats, entrepreneurs and innovators collaborating with business, policy, civil society and communities to co-create strategies and practical results. We turn knowledge into action by breaking out of the silos. Solutions become tangible by testing them in our incubators. Large-scale changes start to manifest by spreading and developing our knowledge throughout local, regional and global networks. Our common goal will be achieved when a new, harmonious relationship with nature receives broad support and becomes visible in many places around the world. Our Hubs cover different regions and countries. They are located in Bern, Southeast Asia, East Africa and South America.
