The Research Institute for Nature and Forest (INBO) is the Flemish research and knowledge centre for nature and its sustainable management and usage. As a prominent scientific institution, the INBO performs applied research both for the Flemish authorities and the international scientific community.

INBO has a staff of about 250 people, of which about 100 scientists (PhD. and MSc.) covering a wide range of topics related to nature and forest monitoring and management such as nature conservation and biodiversity monitoring, forestry, game and IAS management, Ecosystem services and Natural Capital Accounting. The institute has a high scientific standard, that is, amongst others, reflected in the high number of WOS peer-reviewed papers published by its employees (in 2020: 99 papers; in 2021: 85 papers)  

Through its Own Capital (EVINBO), INBO can accept research contracts that are financed externally, including funding from National (e.g. BELSPO, BRAIN) and international programs.  (HORIZON Europe, BIODIVERSA, INTERREG, LIFE+, …). Such international scientific collaborations strengthen INBO's international image and allow us to extend our network. They make it possible to exchange data, develop transnational monitoring instruments and build up and share knowledge and expertise.
