Membership Survey

Early in 2022 a survey of the Alliance membership was conducted and overseen by members of the UBC Botanical Garden.

This survey was voluntary and sought to capture what climate adaptation, landscape succession, scientific research initiatives and projects are being undertaken by member institutions.

The response received demonstrates the breadth of work being completed across a diverse range of subjects from around the world. If you are undertaking or looking to commence climate adaptation work, there are institutions working along similar lines and great opportunities for collaboration.

Survey results can be found here
