Description de la séance
This will be an interactive session on the Species Use Database (SpUD), a vital tool for documenting and analysing how species are used across conservation, trade, and subsistence contexts. This session will introduce SpUD’s purpose and functionality, followed by a live demonstration on navigating the database, searching for species, and extracting key data points. Participants will also gain insights into the 5D Sustainability Framework, which provides a holistic approach to evaluating species use.A hands-on participation segment will guide attendees through the process of entering a record using a real-world example. You’ll learn how to contribute accurate data and avoid common pitfalls. By the end, you’ll understand how SpUD supports conservation decision-making and how you can contribute to improving its data quality.
This session is ideal for researchers, conservationists, and policymakers seeking to enhance their use of data-driven approaches in biodiversity management.
