We are pleased to announce that the Scottish Biodiversity Information Forum (SBIF) Review has been shortlisted in the Nature of Scotland Awards 2018.
The Nature of Scotland Awards are all about celebrating the success of those who work hard to protect and enrich Scotland’s natural environment. The awards have made it possible to spread the word about the many great people and initiatives across the country, with some truly inspirational stories to shout about. In a year with record numbers of nominations, the inspirational people, projects and organisations going on to the next stage of the awards programme were announced at a reception held at the Scottish Parliament in September.
