The Affiliates Seminars are an occasional series of events intended to showcase the diversity of research interests and activities of the Fenner School’s many visiting researchers, honorary staff and emeriti.
This seminar presents results from case studies at two factories, to seek understand the current roles of women in wood processing and how they compare to men in terms of their access to employment, compensation, and developmental opportunities in Laos.
Diseases are considered one of the main factors behind decline in global amphibian populations. This seminar will discuss research into a newly discovered pathogen - Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans (Bsal) - and the impact it's had on European salamanders, and the implications for global salamander diversity.
ANU Fenner School of Environment & Society research students from across our cohorts are presenting their research across two exciting days of talks.
This seminar will provide an overview of Josh Ettinger's research on how extreme weather influences climate change attitudes, with a focus on his recent case study examining the effects of bushfire experiences on climate activism in Australia.

A major landscape experiment run by the Fenner School of Environment & Society has been underway since 1997 on how biodiversity responds to multiple conversions in land cover. This seminar highlights some of the novel and highly unexpected responses of biodiversity to these changes.
This year the Fenner School of Environment & Society at the Australian National University celebrates 15 years since its formation. Please join us for a Spring Celebration with food, music and memories with your colleagues and friends, old and new.
Michael's research is developing methods to estimate trends in crop production, crop water consumption, and water use efficiency at a range of spatial scales.
Belinda aims to elucidate knowledge relating to the eastern quoll’s biology that can be harnessed to improve reintroduction outcomes, as well as develop frameworks that can be applied to other programs across the globe.
It is increasingly acknowledged that multiple interventions are needed to transform rural communities into sustainable communities, creating jobs, food security and prosperous livelihoods for their residents. This event will discuss what kind of approaches are required to create rural transformation and development.
Should journalism be seen as a public good rather than a commercial enterprise? And if so, how do we support this pillar of democracy?
This seminar will explore how context dependence is a critical challenge in invasion ecology, essential for increased understanding and prediction.
Sami’s PhD Project explores the potential of Remote Sensing derived fire characteristics in fire danger modelling including development of a new fire danger index for Australia.
This seminar will touch on the science behind Singapore’s City in Nature, a concerted effort to restore nature into the City. It will focus on the efforts in research pertaining to conservation planning, and nature and people.

There are 78 species of glass frog species that live in Colombia—more than half of the total number of glass frogs in the world. This seminar would be presented with photos that serve as a window into the threatened world of these amazing amphibians, which are part of the treasure trove of biodiversity in Colombia.
The seminar then mobilises the concept of delocalisation to suggest a conceptual shift in community-based environmental management.

This seminar will explore research which investigate the role of the Department of Agricultural Extension (DAE), the most significant public EAS of Bangladesh, in enhancing innovation to help rice farming adapt to flash flooding.
Smouldering fires in peatlands are the largest combustion and longest-lasting fire phenomena on Earth. Studying the combustion fundamentals behind smouldering wildfires not only guides us to reduce the natural fire hazards, but also brings scientific tools to geophysics, ecology, and biology.
Techniques and strategies for delivering a presentation to share your research and get feedback.
This seminar will explore Adam Cisterne's PHD research, which centres around the endangered Tasmanian masked owl. The masked owl’s dependence on forests places it in direct conflict with logging and other industrial practices.
This presentation will be based on a 2021 paper published is the Historic Records of Australian Science journal entitled: A re-examination of William Hann’s Northern Expedition of 1872 to Cape York Peninsula, Queensland.
This seminar will explore how agricultural portfolios developed and managed by national governments, the private sector, development partners, and private equity consider formal ways to measure and improve sustainable innovation impact.
