Fellowships

CBA Fellowship in Artificial Intelligence for a Nature-First Economy

Endowed by NatureAlpha, the CBA’s Fellowship aims to link nature, finance and AI capabilities, leveraging cutting-edge technology to support monitoring and evaluation in the CBA’s projects globally.

The Fellowship aims to operationalise the principles and Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) outlined in the CBA Principles for Regenerative Landscapes and the forthcoming CBA Monitoring and Evaluation Handbook. It will deliver innovative solutions and digital tools that support and empower CBA partners to design, monitor and report their Living Labs.

Core focus areas:

  • Providing insights on the role of AI in advancing the monitoring, tracking, and implementation of landscape regeneration, while enhancing transparency and accountability.
  • Creating comprehensive, interoperable data layers that provide insights into biodiversity, ecosystem services, and circular bioeconomy indicators in space and time.
  • Developing user-friendly platforms, APIs, or tools that enable the CBA monitoring and evaluation framework to utilise data for decision-making, tracking progress, and impact assessment
  • Ensuring research and tools are responsive to real-world needs and are applied effectively, by collaborating with CBA Affiliate Members, Living Lab partners as well as other stakeholders.
