NIU is an open project, building a diverse learning community as we go. We’re involving scientists, ecologists, conservationists, hackers, designers, adventurists, farmers, story- tellers and many others as we work together to build out prototypes of possibility.

Our initial focus is on purposeful and playful participation with the possibility of building deeper and wider intelligence networks around the changing state of nature.

The current lens of our enquiries is around the following challenge areas. We invite your participation, so please get involved.
