02 Purpose and work
What the charity exists to do
Working with people and communities is one key activity. In the short-term, this is done by building relationships with communities and the people within to understand existing connections to nature and landscape. In the long term, communities will feel a sense of agency in relation to the natural world they live in. Another main activity is building relationships based on mutual trust and respect with those controlling land management practices. In the long-term, these relationships will be developed into formal partnerships to restore peatlands, rivers, and woodlands across ownership boundaries. Supporting livelihoods across the landscape through rewilding is the final key activity. In the short-term, the focus is to develop a network that connects and promotes nature-based businesses across the landscape. In the long-term, the promotion of slow tourism in the Affric Highlands as a rewilding tourism destination and supporting sustainable land use for businesses are planned.
