The journal People and Nature, with its open access nature, provides an accessible communication platform for scholars worldwide, enabling research results to be quickly disseminated and widely read. The core mission of this journal is to promote a deeper understanding of the complex relationship between humans and nature, encouraging interdisciplinary research methods to reveal the impact of human activities on the natural environment, as well as the feedback of the natural environment on human society and culture.

The journal covers multiple disciplines such as ecology, environmental science, geography, sociology, economics, anthropology, etc., providing researchers with an opportunity to showcase how they explore the interaction between humans and nature in different fields. These studies not only include theoretical analysis, but also empirical research, aiming to provide scientific basis for policy makers, environmental managers, and the public to support sustainable development and environmental protection decisions.
