We're Building a Coalition.
Join the 90-day founding sprint and help build the Wild Cities Coalition.
Â
Wild Cities is bringing together the people, organisations and resources needed to accelerate nature recovery across our 14-mile London corridor, connecting Haringey, Hackney, Tower Hamlets and Newham.
Â
Why get involved?
Share what you're working on, bring your expertise and ideas, connect with potential partners, and help shape a coalition that can turn shared ambition into action.
​
Together, we'll identify opportunities to collaborate, mobilise resources and make nature recovery happen at scale.
​
This is an opportunity to help shape the Coalition from the outset — there's no commitment or formal membership required.
Wild Cities provides the connective infrastructure through three core functions:
Acting as a neutral convenor bringing organisations together around shared priorities and identifying where collective action can add value.
Convene partners &
aggregate demand
Turn shared priorities into an investible pipeline
Developing viable opportunities on the ground and connecting them to the funding, expertise and support they need.
Measure, report & share learnings
Building the evidence of what works, strengthening accountability and informing future investment.
The pieces are here. Let's bring them together.
No organisation can deliver city-wide nature recovery alone. The land, funding, knowledge and people needed are spread across different sectors. Wild Cities brings them together.
