Morally Contested Conservation


Conservation priorities often fall within a Global North-South divide, but new research suggests conservation priorities differ more between communities local and distant to conservation sites for a variety of ecological and socio-cultural factors. 👉 bit.ly/4kZQoD5


Achieving the UN's 30x30 target could create tension between area-based and people-centred conservation. By incorporating perspectives of people living in high-biodiversity areas, decision-makers can promote more equitable and effective conservation. 👉 bit.ly/4aYa45F

The @CST_SU and our senior researcher, Dr @HayleySClements, had the privilege of hosting researchers from the Morally Contested Conservation group based at @UniofOxford. Building partnerships around how conservation is seen & how people & nature coexist was high on the agenda

Lesle Jansen from Jamma had a lovely time meeting the Morally Contested Conservation team in Cape Town! @mcc_project
