About ESP​​​​​​​

The Ecosystem Services Partnership (ESP) is a global network that connects ecosystem services scientists, practitioners, stakeholders, and policymakers on different topics at local, national, regional, and global scales. ESP aims to enhance communication, coordination and cooperation, and to build a strong network of individuals and organisations working on ecosystem services. ESP enhances and encourages a diversity of approaches while reducing unnecessary duplication of effort in the conceptualisation and application of ecosystem services.

ESP connects over 3000 ecosystem services scientists, policymakers and practitioners who work together in more than 40 Working Groups and a growing number of National Networks on all continents. The community gathers regularly at global and regional conferences.

ESP is a membership-based organisation; both institutional and individual members can subscribe.
