Welcome! We are a collective of undergraduate and graduate students at the University of Oregon with a common interest in ecological restoration. We embrace community-centered work, collaborative and translational applied research, and interaction with the larger ecological restoration community. Here, you can find out what we are up to and how to get involved.
People and place matter:
As ecologists, we have traditionally valued diversity in the systems that we study, and it should be no different for the systems we are embedded in.
The Society for Ecological Restoration at the University of Oregon (SER-UO) is committed to including indigenous and historically disenfranchised people in our process of learning about, discussing, and participating in ecological restoration. As we work on restoration projects, we will give understanding to the people who have, are, and will be inhabitants of that place. As such, we acknowledge that we are on the Kalapuya Ilihi, the homeland of the Kalapuya people. Likewise, we welcome students of any race, age, gender, ethnicity, identities, ability, and nationality to join our group and volunteer in our restoration projects.
