Por qué asistir
Come spark your reimagination. We'll explore diverse meanings and values; approaches and practices for asserting rights and visions; and pathways for moving from reflection to transformation in area-based conservation.
Descripción de la sesión
Few conservation concepts evoke as polarised and complex discussions as area-based conservation. In the name of conserving biodiversity, competing concepts of ‘conservation’, ‘effectiveness’, relationships with and responsibilities to the earth, and concepts such as justice and rights, have played out across geographies and scales. This session will comprise a series of dialogues amongst representatives of Indigenous peoples, local communities, conservation NGOs and other actors, to collectively reimagine the meanings, values and worldviews that underpin diverse conservation. We will also hear and learn about practices and approaches for asserting rights and moving from reflection and assessment to transformative change. Our session seeks to reflect on and challenge the power dynamics that persist across contemporary area-based conservation policy and practice.Organised by
