SCNAT creates the largest knowledge network on the landscape
Sprawl, loss of landscape diversity and biodiversity, mountain landscapes marked by climate change: Starting in 2019, the Academy of Natural Sciences (SCNAT) is merging various of its activities in the new Landscape, Alps, Parks Forum.The goal is to better protect Switzerland's landscapes in collaboration with politics and society and to utilise and manage them more sustainably.
This fusion creates the largest knowledge network in Switzerland on natural and cultural landscapes. Designated president is Felix Kienast of the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research (WSL).
