Exploration Zones
Exploration zones are curated conversations within our network which explore natural capital more widely or a specific element in more detail, and bring learning and ideas back to the network, creating spaces beyond focused topics, for interaction and cross-pollination between the hubs.
These zones are initiated and led by members of our network. The Scottish Forum secretariat provides the Basecamp network and wider infrastructure to enable communication and activity.
The Ecosystem Services Community Scotland (ESCom) group, was closed in August 2022 to allow the group members to focus on other commitments. It was felt the policy, NGO, business and research community engagement would continue through other routes in the Scottish Forum. Legacy outputs can be found here.
