This talk explores how engaging with diverse knowledge systems, across sciences, humanities, and Indigenous perspectives, can support truly transformative change in conservation, with insights from emerging UK-based frameworks and practices.
This talk presents findings from a global meta-analysis of 186 studies assessing biodiversity outcomes over time. It shows that in two-thirds of cases, conservation actions improved biodiversity or slowed its decline. Results highlight the effectiveness of targeted interventions such as invasive species control, habitat restoration, and protected areas—while calling for a transformational scale-up to meet global nature targets.
In Australia, where climate debate is polarized, Farmers for Climate Action (FCA) emerged in 2015 as a non-partisan charity uniting farmers with climate science and policy. This study delves into the experiences of New South Wales farmers who joined FCA.
