Prince William said: “Dartmoor is a magnificent and complex ecosystem – the balance between nature and people has evolved for thousands of years to shape the landscape we recognise today.
“The Dartmoor Vision shows us what might be possible and how that might be achieved.
“To keep Dartmoor special, we must respond to the twin challenges of global warming and the requirement to restore nature, while ensuring the communities on Dartmoor can thrive.”
The project is also seeking to create “partnerships between landowners, farmers and wildlife teams” and foster “collaboration and mutual respect in what has historically been a contested landscape”.
The duchy said it would promote sustainable farming as well as initiatives to provide affordable housing for landscape managers and retiring workers.
