Peatland ACTION

Building capacity for ecological restoration
The Crichton Carbon Centre manage and deliver the Peatland ACTION restoration training programme. Our two-day events can be held in person (across Scotland), or online and cover both technical and practical content. The events are a space for open, interactive discussions on peatland restoration. Our aim is that you leave with a greater understanding of peatlands and the various restoration techniques used to restore them.
The training sessions are specifically designed for:
-
Contractors looking to undertake peatland restoration projects

Consultants looking to undertake peatland restoration projects, peatland condition assessments and feasibility studies
-
Ecological Clerk of Works
-
Agents preparing peatland restoration projects

A typical training session includes:

-
An introduction to planning and designing a peatland restoration project
-
An overview of restoration techniques
-
A site visit to look at examples of restoration techniques in action (for in person events only)
