The CCRI is a key partner in a new EU project that seeks to combat desertification in rural areas.

This project will evaluate the effectiveness of previous agri-environment schemes (AES) by examining the condition of stone walls (SW) and stone-faced banks (SB) in selected case study locations.

The United Nations Development Programme Independent Evaluation Office has recently published an Armenian focused report authored by two CCRI researchers.

This project provided a comprehensive evaluation of the Defra-funded Rural Housing Enabler (RHE) Programme.

Earlier this year Janet Dwyer and Gwyn Jones completed the 18-month project 'Dartmoor Test and Trial'.

The CCRI recently held another Climathon, this time in collaboration with Forest of Dean District Council. The event focused on developing net zero solutions for electricity and heat.

This project is an extension of previous Fisher Social Survey work undertaken by the team, leveraging the insights and methodologies established in the previous stages. The focus of this phase is to conduct two pilot survey rounds to gather data on the fishing industry and its stakeholders.

The CCRI is a member of a groundbreaking consortium awarded a £6.5 million grant by the Government to look at how changes to land use will help achieve net zero in the UK by 2050.

Several members of the CCRI have been involved in a research partnership which will help shape new ELM schemes.
