“The All-Ireland Peatlands Centre of Excellence will bring together scientists, policymakers, landowners, and communities" - Dr Terry Morley, School of Geography, Archaeology and Irish Studies & Lead of the All-Ireland Peatlands Centre of Excellence at @RyanInstitute @uniofgalway
We're delighted to announce the launch of the All-Ireland Peatlands Centre of Excellence to lead research and policy development on the restoration and conservation of bogland. The Centre has been established at the University’s @RyanInstitute to help address critical challenges linked to peatlands, including decarbonisation, biodiversity loss, just transition and cultural heritage. Along with academic research and policy development, it will also serve as a hub for innovation and training in relation to protection of peatlands on the island of Ireland and overseas. It follows on from the RePEAT project, a research collaboration involving University of Galway and @tcddublin which identified former peatlands areas that are suitable for alternative management and informs national bog rewetting projects to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. A special showcase outlining the findings of the RePEAT research project is being hosted in the Orbsen Building on the University of Galway campus from Monday December 15th-19th while a public lecture will be held on Thursday, December 18th at 5pm in the Michael D Higgins Auditorium. Pictured: Louis Gilet, John Connolly, Katja Bruish, Piaras Ó Giobúin, Lisa Coleman carrying out field work in Co Roscommon. #UniversityofGalway #Peatlands #Bogland #Research
