Strategic Conference Theme

IENE 2026 will focus on how infrastructure can be planned, delivered and managed to work with nature rather than against it, through four strategic themes.

These themes help create a cohesive and balanced conference while leaving room for creativity and innovative approaches.

The Value of Nature

Placing ecological and social value at the heart of infrastructure decision-making, and critically assessing investment, valuation and nature-based approaches.

Resilience Through Nature

Strengthening climate resilience by working with ecosystem processes, while recognising ecological limits, thresholds and risks of maladaptation.

Pace Over Perfection

Scaling proven solutions to reduce fragmentation and severance at landscape and network scales, balancing urgency with ecological integrity.

Creating Actionable Knowledge

Utilising foundational knowledge to address ecological severance at a landscape scale, supporting more connected habitats and informed restoration planning.
