The project aims to demonstrate the potential impacts of obtaining legal personhood for the River Dôn. This has been achieved in several other countries (New Zealand, Ecuador, Spain and India), but not yet in the UK.

By innovating the current legal ownership and governance model, we aim to create the conditions for new legal, economic and democratic frameworks for the rights of nature in South Yorkshire.

In attaining enhanced rights for the River Dôn we want to change the way we interact with and value the river - socially, economically, politically and environmentally.
