Since the founding of its Forest School in 1900, Yale has been a leader in understanding how to manage ecosystems to be both productive and healthy.
Growing from the wooded acres of New England, today, Yale’s work covers the globe, from studies of arctic tundra to tropical conservation efforts along the equator. With the creation of urban meadows and rain gardens and through its research facilities, Yale is a steward of its land.
The university is equally committed to the support of distant ecosystems, offering programs that train people from all sectors in conservation and restoration strategies.
