🔗 Join the Community of Research
Following an exceptionally hot summer with an unprecedently high risk of wildfire spreading in Wales, Environment Platform Wales are hosting a Wildfire Knowledge Exchange event on 26/10/2026 from 10:30 – 12:00 via MS Teams.
We hope that this event will help to map out existing Wildfire research already taking place across Welsh Universities, highlight gaps in our knowledge and facilitate collaboration to fund further Welsh Wildfire research.
If you would like to attend, please get in touch at info@epwales.org.uk.
