Ecosystems and People – an inclusive, interdisciplinary journal

As part of a set of ongoing changes to the Journal, in this Editorial we would like to announce its new name: Ecosystems and People. In 2010, the term ‘Ecosystem Services’ was added to the International Journal of Biodiversity Science & Management, which had existed since 2005. This was done to position it as a natural sciences journal that also focused on the benefits that biodiversity provides to society. Now, to better align the Journal’s name with the more interdisciplinary scope that came along with the recent change of Editors (van Oudenhoven et al. 2018), the entire Editorial Board decided in January 2018 to change the Journal’s name to Ecosystems and People. This new name has broad support among all Associate Editors and Editorial Board members as well as our publisher, Taylor & Francis, and was agreed on after an interactive process.
