We operate at the intersection of enterprise, justice, and conservation, bringing together diverse stakeholders and perspectives to address the seemingly intractable environmental problems facing our world.
Our Vision is a world that is sustainable, just, and abundantly wild.
Our Mission is to use the power of the university to catalyze a global community of innovators, educators, and advocates to solve the essential environmental challenges of our time.
Our Approach
Rigorous Creativity
+ Radical Collaboration
= Societal Impact
We support teams that advance and apply novel technologies to prevent environmental destruction, anticipate ecological shifts, and reverse damage.
We convene beyond traditional boundaries, expanding conversations and driving action outside the typical silos and well beyond the halls of academia.
We work toward societal-scale impact, investing in the people and places we touch with integrity and commitment.
Organizations We Partner With
Our work is made possible through a diverse mix of partnerships both within Wake Forest University and far beyond campus. These collaborations allow us to pursue even more high impact research and programming, bringing to bear the right mix of expertise, resources, and relationships to comprehensively address the many emerging environmental crises our world faces.
