Conservation Research, Policy and Practice

Conservation Research, Policy and Practice by William J. Sutherland, Peter N. M. Brotherton English | 2020 | ISBN: 1108714587 | 372 Pages | PDF | 10 MB Conservation research is essential for advancing knowledge but to make an impact scientific evidence must influence conservation policies, decision making and practice. This raises a multitude of challenges. How should evidence be collated and presented to policymakers to maximise its impact? How can effective collaboration between conservation scientists and decision-makers be established? How can the resulting messages be communicated to bring about change? Emerging from a successful international symposium organised by the British Ecological Society and the Cambridge Conservation Initiative, this is the first book to practically address these questions across a wide range of conservation topics. Well-renowned experts guide readers through global case studies and their own experiences. A must-read for practitioners, researchers, graduate students and policymakers wishing to enhance the prospect of their work 'making a difference'. 'Conservation practitioners, policy makers and researchers alike will find much to interest them in this excellent book. Ecological systems are complex and sometimes unpredictable so the more clues we have to how a particular conservation management intervention might play out in the real world the greater likelihood of achieving the outcomes we are looking for. Too often, proposals for conserving a species, habitat or ecosystem are subject to confirmation bias, erroneous assumptions and flimsy evidence bases. This book challenges conservationists not only to do better but equips them with the tools to do so. It is an important contribution to the urgent planetary need to address nature's decline and loss.' - Jonathan Hughes, Chief Executive Officer, WCMC, UN Environment Programme World Conservation Monitoring Centre If you want to support my blog, then you can buy a premium account through any of my files (i.e. on the download page of my book).
