About the North Devon UNESCO Biosphere
The North Devon UNESCO Biosphere is an important meeting place of rich natural and cultural heritage in a stunning, diverse landscape, in the heart of South West England.
We champion life
We create the conditions for people and nature to thrive together.
We believe that people’s wellbeing and the health and diversity of nature are inextricably linked. People are a part of their environments which have in turn been shaped by local cultures. So we find ways to celebrate and advance culture, nature and economy together.
We model solutions
We explore new ways of living everyday that solve global challenges.

We empower people
We are a movement of people building a future that we can trust.
We know that people are most powerful when they are informed, inspired, and have the tools to make change happen. The only way to build a future that is self-sufficient, secure and happy is to help people believe it is possible, and help them to make it happen.
We belong together
Our success depends on the strength of the relationships we create.
It’s these powerful connections that mean we can achieve outcomes together that we could not achieve alone and be part of something bigger. Connecting people across disciplines, cultures and borders. Reconnecting people to each other, and to nature. Connecting the values and heritage from our past with hopes we have for our future.
