Por qué asistir
Explore the challenges of scaling conservation without undermining local governance. This panel examines how large-scale ecological initiatives can coexist with community authority, customary rights, and participatory decision-making. Attendees will learn practical approaches to reconcile biodiversity goals with social justice, ensuring landscape-scale conservation strengthens, rather than displaces, local stewardship.
Descripción de la sesión
Large-scale, landscape and jurisdictional approaches are often seen as key to tackling biodiversity loss, climate adaptation, and ecosystem resilience. Yet scaling up conservation can create hidden risks: centralised control, sidelined local governance, and diminished community priorities. This panel brings together experts and practitioners to explore how Human-Centred Conservation can reframe these initiatives around stewardship rather than control. Panellists will share real-world examples where ecological connectivity and resilience are pursued alongside strengthened local authority and governance. Discussions will address how to align large-scale conservation visions with cultural, legal, and economic rights, navigate trade-offs, and imagine models where landscape-scale action is driven from the bottom up. Attendees will leave with a deeper understanding of how to implement jurisdictional and landscape-level conservation that is both ecologically effective and socially just, ensuring communities remain empowered stewards of their lands.Organised by
