The Nature2020 COVID-19 nature journals project aims to record local people’s interactions with nature during the pandemic.

Nature2020 was intended as a year of activities to celebrate the natural environment of The Living Coast, Brighton and Lewes’ local biosphere reserve, and to engage more people in the care and conservation of local nature.

COVID-19 put a stop to much Nature2020 activity. But in collaboration with the Mass Observation Archive, Nature2020 is now inviting people in The Living Coast to share writings and artwork which reflect their connections to the natural environment during COVID-19. The nature journals project aims to record local people’s interactions with nature during the pandemic.
