The 11th annual Conservation Symposium will begin in Scottburgh this Sunday (30th) and end on November 5. This year, the symposium will bring together over 140 speakers from across the globe for 31 sessions over six days at the Premier Resort’s Cutty Sark and the Dream Hotel’s Blue Marlin hotels. This will serve as a bridge between conservation practitioners, scientists and policymakers in a conducive environment to solve real-world problems.
A vast range of topics will be covered with special emphasis on key areas including conservation law, the African wildlife economy, considerations for freshwater ecosystems, protected area management effectiveness, the science of funding, and a post-symposium workshop on biodiversity offsets. Other interesting sessions include canines in conservation, effects of the internet on conservation efforts, conservation genetics and how to facilitate convergence between various role players in the environmental sector.
