ICSI an engineering-led coalition with a mission to make resilience and sustainability a cornerstone of every decision in the infrastructure lifecycle in communities around the globe.
Lloyd's Register Foundation is looking to achieve new clarity on the definition of nature-positive engineering, working with partners to gain insights into the current state of research and practice in this field, identify new and emerging trends, and provide a framework for traditional engineering approaches to become ecology-inclusive from ideation to implementation.
Led by the International Coalition for Sustainable Infrastructure (ICSI), we will be producing a Foresight Review in this area, with a particular focus on coastal and marine environments, including deep dives into:
Emphasis will be placed on the value creation and scalability of NPE solutions throughout their full life cycle, ensuring safe practice and attention to natural ecosystems are embedded at every stage from design to decommissioning.
Following analysis of extensive desk-based research and consultation with key experts across the engineering value chain, the Foundation and ICSI will develop a set of recommendations, prioritised interventions and actions to accelerate and scale up the implementation of safe NPE solutions around the world.
We are looking for expert input and contributions of relevant case studies, resources and evidence of NPE in action. If you would like to contribute to this project, get in touch by emailing [email protected] or speak with our programme manager using the contact details below.

I am delighted that ICSI is leading this Foresight Review at a time when the world is in urgent need of engineering practices that uplift nature and protect communities. As in all of ICSI’s work, the project will prioritise learning from one another to transfer knowledge and scale up best practices. Through an extensive consultation, we aim to stimulate and advance the debate on NPE while ensuring that we are inclusive of all voices.
