Description of Impact(s) (English Only) Nature’s decline ‘unprecedented’ in human history: 1 million species threatened with extinction. The realisation that the future of humanity is hanging by a thread is the driving force behind the mission that Liesje Mommer, Professor of Plant Ecology and Nature Conservation, has formulated for Wageningen University & Research (WUR): to reverse the decreasing biodiversity curve. She wants to connect all WUR initiatives, research studies and researchers working on biodiversity. Her motto: we are better together.
