dc.description.abstract
This report examines what knowledge woodland restoration practitioners say they need, with the goal of co-developing a shared plan for future research with researchers. We used a mixed- methods approach: an online survey, in-depth interviews, and a collaborative workshop. We bring together findings from all three to identify priority knowledge gaps; show how shortages in evidence, knowledge sharing, or practical implementation contribute to those gaps; and propose actions that practitioners and researchers can take to address them. We also consider how external factors — such as policy, funding, and organisational capacity — shape what is possible. The report concludes with a shared vision for future research in woodland restoration.
