The Society for Ecological Restoration (SER) is a
conservation organization based in the United States, supporting a "global community of
restoration professionals that includes researchers, practitioners, decision-makers, and community leaders".[1] The organization was founded in 1988.[1] The mission of the organization is to: "advance the science, practice and policy of
ecological restoration to sustain
biodiversity, improve resilience in a
changing climate, and re-establish an ecologically healthy relationship between nature and culture."[2]
SER produces definitions and standards for the practice of ecological restoration, including the SER International Primer on Ecological Restoration (2004),[3]International Standards for the Practice of Ecological Restoration (2016),[4][5][6] and a certification program for professionals: Certified Ecological Restoration Practitioner (CERP).[7]
