About

At the end of December 2020, the UK and the EU struck a Trade and Cooperation Agreement. How will this new agreement affect their environmental relations? And as the UK embarks on this new phase of the Brexit process, what are the implications for its environmental policy and governance?

Policy-makers, environmental NGOs and the public need expert knowledge in order to seize the opportunities and mitigate the risks posed by Brexit. Because policy making in the EU is often highly technical, its net effect on the daily lives of UK citizens and their local environment tends to escape media attention.

We are a network of independent researchers from across the UK and the EU working on projects related to Brexit and the environment. This website, funded by the ESRC, is a hub of information on how Brexit affects the environment and related sectors such as agriculture and fisheries.

We are available to speak to the press about our reports, Brexit and EU policy, and to discuss opportunities to commission new work by our team of academic researchers.
