Currently she is working as the lead ecologist on the INCASE (Irish Natural Capital Accounting for Sustainable Environments) project. She started out as a restoration ecologist and practitioner in the late 1990s and since then has worked on a wide range of projects in Ireland to restore degraded peatlands, particularly the Bord na Móna (Irish Turf Board) industrial peat extraction sites and domestically cut bogs. Catherine has expanded her work internationally to develop best practices globally for ecological restoration and is looking forward to making further progress in restoring nature through the UN Decade on Restoration.

Follow Catherine on Twitter @seewilkie and @IncaseProject INCASE research project: The Irish Natural Capital for Sustainable Environments (INCASE) project is applying Natural Capital Accounting principles at river catchment scale in Ireland. Natural capital accounts will be developed based on the UN System of Environmental-Economic Accounts (SEEA) for four catchments to map natural capital stocks and flows of services. The project will highlight challenges, knowledge and data gaps, and recommend a framework to operationalise Natural Capital Accounting in Ireland. INCASE is an EPA-funded research project.
