It's that time of year when I ask EVERYONE to encourage current and future change-makers in conservation to consider applying for the Cambridge Masters in Conservation Leadership @MPhilCL @CCI_Cambridge @cambridge_uccri. Scholarships available!

If you usually use the GO-FOX tool in your teaching, my surveys are on a separate platform but include the same Future of Conservation statements.

NB: to qualify, the module needs to 1) have the word #conservation in the module title/name 2) be taught at a HEI in the UK 3) not be solely offered for part-time students
