During the #DortmundConference, one of the key themes of the @LeadersSouthern representatives was the need for respect between Europe and Africa when working together on environmental issues. @lubilo_rodgers of Zambia emphasised this point. #LetAfricansDecide #conservation #CBNRM

Really good to see local African voices, eg. @MaxiPiaLouis1, finally being heard more in the media on issues which directly affect them, eg trophy hunting. #Conservation has a long colonial past & we shouldn't be neo-colonial now. Good work @pgreenfielduk theguardian.com/environment/20…

I was honored to lay a wreath of flowers at the Kigali Genocide Memorial @Kigali_Memorial. Thank you @IucnRwanda @ckarangwa30 for such a warm welcome. As leaders, we need to know the history of our respective countries, and learn from it for a better future.

"Resource use without resource management is non-sustainable. But equally any attempt to establish resource management without resource use is likely to be futile" Wise words from the great Marshall Murphree who, sadly, has passed away. www0.sun.ac.za/awei/posts/pas… #WildlifeEconomy
