The network aims to explore how different ways of researching and writing about the past shape our understandings of contemporary environments, and how we envision what might happen to them in the future. In particular, the network proposes to investigate the ways in which experimental accounts of past environmental change can help prepare us for uncertain futures, and become enrolled in processes of mitigation and adaptation. We refer to this as an experiment in anticipatory history.Through a series of workshops, the network will test and develop the concept of 'anticipatory history' and assess its potential contribution to cross-disciplinary research in the histories of environmental change. The network is keenly interested in exploring how such histories might travel outside the academy, and be taken up by people in various contexts. To this end, the network aims to develop working collaborations between academics and practitioners. Participants in the workshops include representatives from organisations such as the Cornwall Wildlife Trust and the National Trust. It is intended that the outcomes of the workshop will make a tangible contribution to management, interpretation and communication around issues of environmental change. This network will achieve its aims by working through two case-studies: landscape and wildlife history. It will do so in the context of the county of Cornwall. Cornwall is a region with a long history of nature study and, as a peninsula and wildlife haven, is particularly susceptible to sudden weather events and to longer term environmental and climatic change. The network will gather together a diverse group of practitioners and academics to advance thinking in the areas of landscape and wildlife change and to explore innovative approaches in the production of environmental histories and futures. Workshops will allow academic researchers and environmental writers to present their research on histories of the environment to organisations who are involved in the management of the environment. These discussions will be organised such that they allow these organisations to learn from and take on board these ideas. In turn, the organisations will be able to discuss with academic specialists the specific issues and challenges they face in their work. These discussions will aim to assist public and other organisations in the development of strategies for the communication of environmental management policies and decisions.The ideas developed in the network will be documented in an original publication, produced in collaboration with the book artist, publisher and writer, Colin Sackett. This publication will experiment with creative forms of presentation and narration to offer a tangible demonstration of the potential for anticipatory histories of changing places and populations. The book will communicate the outcomes of the network, and will be a useful education and communication tool for many of the groups involved in the network and in related fields.

该网络旨在探索研究和写作过去的不同方式如何塑造我们对当代环境的理解，以及我们如何设想未来可能发生的事情。该网络特别建议调查对过去环境变化的实验说明如何帮助我们为不确定的未来做好准备，并参与减缓和适应进程。我们把这称为预见性历史的实验。通过一系列讲习班，该网络将测试和发展“预期历史”的概念，并评估其对环境变化历史跨学科研究的潜在贡献。该网络非常有兴趣探索这些历史如何在学术界之外传播，并在各种背景下被人们所接受。为此，该网络旨在发展学者和从业者之间的工作合作。研讨会的参与者包括来自康沃尔野生动物信托和国家信托等组织的代表。讲习班的成果将对围绕环境变化问题的管理、解释和交流作出实际贡献。该网络将通过两个案例研究来实现其目标：景观和野生动物历史。它将以康沃尔郡为背景。康沃尔是一个有着悠久自然研究历史的地区，作为一个半岛和野生动物的天堂，特别容易受到突发天气事件和长期环境和气候变化的影响。该网络将汇集各种各样的从业者和学者，以促进景观和野生动物变化领域的思考，并探索环境历史和未来生产的创新方法。研讨会将允许学术研究人员和环境作家向参与环境管理的组织展示他们对环境历史的研究。这些讨论的组织方式将使这些组织能够学习并采纳这些想法。反过来，这些组织将能够与学术专家讨论他们在工作中面临的具体问题和挑战。这些讨论的目的是协助公众和其他组织制定宣传环境管理政策和决定的战略。在网络中产生的想法将被记录在原始出版物中，由图书艺术家、出版商和作家科林·萨克特（Colin Sackett）合作出版。这份出版物将尝试创造性的介绍和叙述形式，以切实的方式展示对不断变化的地方和人口的预期历史的潜力。这本书将传达网络的成果，并将成为许多参与网络和相关领域的团体的有用教育和交流工具。
