The Environmental module of South West Observatory is a partnership of environmental organisations sharing the collation, production, analysis & dissemination of intelligence, evidence & research on regional environmental matters here in the South West of England. The module is part of the South West Observatory collaberative initiative.

The South West Observatory consists of five thematic modules, each representing a different sector, seven local intelligence networks covering particular sub-regions (old counties) and all are coordinated by a Core Unit.
