FOR GRADUATE STUDENTS
The GCA Fellowship In
Ecological Restoration


Supports specialized graduate study and research in
ecological restoration, the active healing of the land,
at an accredited university in the United States.
The goal of this fellowship is to support research that
will advance knowledge and increase the numbers of
scientists in this important field. The proposed study
should conform to the Society of Ecological Restoration’s definition of ecological restoration: “The process of assist-
ing the recovery and management of ecological integrity
[which] includes a critical range of variability in biodi-
versity, ecological processes and structures, regional and
historical context, and sustainable cultural practices.”  A
selection panel is composed of faculty members at the
University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum.
