THE OPEN WILDING PROJECT
The Open Wilding Project is a student-run CIC project that rewilds areas of the UK for environmental protection and scientific study.
​
The project is the first of its kind in the UK. It is governed and owned by students within the environmental sciences who have an interest and passion in the environment and conservation.
​
What is The Open Wilding Project?

Aims
What land will you purchase for rewilding?
The land purchased is under the management of the Voting Members, its Committees and Director.
Because of this, the members will all vote on the land that will be purchased, but it is not limited to any one area in the UK.
The purpose of The Open Wilding Project is to rewild, benefit the environment and provide a space for scientific study. This means that the land purchased has to be suitable for its purpose.
​
Currently, The Climate Corner CIC is raising purchasing funds before selecting an area of land.
We aim to protect all wildlife in the UK, and rewilding creates a haven for wildlife to return, thrive and develop in biodiversity.
Where appropriate, we will work with wildlife charities to release indigenous species into the Open WIlding spaces where it would be to the benefit of the environment, always taking the utmost care to not disturb or be a detriment to the environment.
It is important that the wildlife are left to their own devices, this includes predation and succession, with little, to no intervention.
What wildlife will you support?
