To determine the effectiveness of pollinator restoration measures in Irish agricultural landscapes, both for pollinators and for other biodiversity and ecosystem services. To use a living labs approach to ensure effective stakeholder engagement and transfer of knowledge. To develop rapid assessment evaluations to measure pollinator restoration, and develop transferable approaches for different actors at a range of scales

Over-arching aim: To engage in highly impactful research bringing together experts and researchers in the natural sciences, agriculture and business, to investigate how best to design a funding structure that: 1) provides the most efficient means for corporates to fund nature-positive action on farms. 2) provides the funding needed for farmers to undertake nature-positive actions on their farms. 3) leads to the most ecologically advantageous outcomes (up-scaling from the successful Burren Programme to improve farmland biodiversity in Ireland).
