The Society for Ecological
Restoration (SER) International
is a non-profit organization infused with the energy of 2300 members
– individuals and organizations who are actively engaged in
ecologically-sensitive repair and management of ecosystems through
an unusually broad array of experience, knowledge sets and cultural
perspectives. They are scientists, planners, administrators,
ecological consultants, first peoples, landscape architects,
philosophers, teachers, engineers, natural areas managers, writers,
growers, community activists, and volunteers, among others.
Founded in 1987, the SER International now boasts members in 37
countries and all 50 US states, with 14 chapters serving regions of
North America, England, Europe, Australia and India. Recognized by
public and private enterprises as the source for expertise on
restoration science, practice and policy, the Society achieves its
objectives through cooperation with partner organizations and the
work of its worldwide membership. The Society for Ecological
Restoration International is a registered not-for-profit
organization under Section 501(c)3 of the US Internal Revenue Code,
and all contributions are fully tax-deductible.
SER International does not itself engage in restoration projects;
its mission is:
"to promote ecological
restoration as a means of sustaining the diversity of life on Earth
and reestablishing an ecologically healthy relationship between
nature and culture.".
