Collaborations

The Thames Valley Wildflower Meadow Restoration Project is underpinned by Long Mead’s Biodiversity Research Project, with advisors and collaborators from the Open University, Plant Sciences and Zoology Departments of Oxford University, the Museum of Cardiff, as well as Oxford Brookes University. The project brings together the long-term practical know-how of farmers and the long-term research of scholars, with the experience of environmental organisations and other stakeholders to address key questions of sustainable food production, biodiversity loss and climate change. 

In 2022, we are beginning a new collaboration with Oxford Brookes Conservation Ecology Programme and are looking forward to working with their undergraduate and graduate students as well as working with Dr Matthew Bulbert, entomologist and the MSc Program Co-ordinator
