Initiatives
The John Muir Award works with and supports initiatives, campaigns and organisations that share our mission to help people connect with, enjoy, and care for wild places. They often provide valuable information and inspiration for those taking part in the John Muir Award.

Views from 2050
Views from 2050 is an initiative that asked a broad canvas of people to consider themselves as being in the year 2050, with the Government’s 80% greenhouse gas emission reduction targets having been met. This generated a discussion about the value of nature, landscapes and biodiversity.

National Parks
The John Muir Award is now used by all 15 of the UK's National Parks.
