Nomadic pastoralists make an important contribution to food and protein production and food security worldwide. They make sustainable use of vast (semi-)desert and mountain areas under specific conditions. While doing this, they do not only exploit the natural environment, but also create landscapes, maintain biodiversity and preserve wildlife populations. Yet, in many areas they are facing tremendous challenges because of land occupation, climate change, mining, political turmoil and hostile governments endangering their way of life. In these challenges the three core domains of Wageningen University & Research (food, feed and bio-based economy, natural resources and living environment, well-being and society), come together and pose important questions and issues for interdisciplinary and societal relevant research.

The Tree Conference is a one day event focused around the needs of trees. Our 3 main aims are:
- Support citizen-led reforestation and ecosystem restoration.
- Halt destruction of old growth forests and highlight strategies around caring for tree health.
- Lift up world class science and practical projects in communities, education and the media.
This year we will have a host of excellent speakers including pioneering projects, environmental lawyers and world class scientists about trees and the climate. The whole conference will be live-streamed. We are keen to support anyone who wishes to set up similar Tree Conferences in their own bioregions.
