Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, United Kingdom UN Environment World Conservation Monitoring Centre Full time
Nature Based Solutions | Full-time, fixed term contract (12 weeks) | £10.42 per hour


The UN Environment Programme World Conservation Monitoring Centre works with scientists and policy makers worldwide to place biodiversity at the heart of environment and development decision-making to enable enlightened choices for people and the planet.


A key focus for the Nature-based Solutions (NbS) Impact Area is the role that approaches such restoring and protecting ecosystems can play in climate change mitigation.

Our work also aims to support the development of climate change policies and actions that deliver a range of environmental benefits, by providing decision-makers with relevant data, analyses, capacity building and tools.

This work is closely aligned to the Nature Restored Impact Area which aims to support efforts to restore ecosystems and sustain nature's contributions to people.


Ecosystem restoration is undertaken for a multitude of purposes: for biodiversity conservation, as a nature-based solution to climate change mitigation or adaptation needs, to restore ecosystem services and support sustainable development.

This practical, 12-week internship will contribute to identifying how biodiversity-focused landscape scale restoration under the Endangered Landscapes Programme can also contribute to climate change mitigation.

Working with UNEP-WCMC staff, the intern will help collect data and assess the GHG impacts of land management options, in the special context of European landscape restoration projects.


This will involve working in collaboration with the RSPB on a follow-on project under the Cambridge Conservation Initiative's Endangered Landscapes Programme.

It forms part of the
Centre's wider work within the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, which started in 202- N.B. this is a third internship on this topic, not a re-advertisement._
