The succession of an ecosystem from bare earth to a climax community
Accelerating restoration to a scale that can effectively counter biodiversity decline and close the ecosystem services gap.
Prisere strives to reconnect Aotearoa’s fragmented landscape through innovative natural asset investment frameworks.
Many of our forest birds do not venture outside of the forest. A fractured landscape of small forest patches prevent our precious wildlife from expanding their range.
The definition of our name says it all. Prisere is an organisation on a mission to restore natural ecosystems from the ground up.
Our focus is on ecological restoration at regional and national scales with a vision to break free from the current site-focused paradigm.
Achieving meaningful biodiversity gains and meeting sufficient ecosystem service quotas necessitates restoration strategies in orders of magnitude greater than current approaches.
Hundred-hectare ecosystems are nice to have.
Ten thousand-hectare ecosystems are necessary.
Why is the New Zealand we see on screen so different from the one outside our windows? I founded Prisere to close that gap. By bringing native ecosystems back to our urban spaces, we’re healing our land and our communities simultaneously.
