Conservation Seminar – Reimaging Conservation Today: Decolonization, indigenous sovereignty and collaboration

Prof Paige West from Columbia University is this week's speaker.

"Today conservation sits at a crossroads. Scholars and practitioners can either continue down the deeply historic paths of protection, preservation, and management, and the epistemic divides that these practices are based on, or they can step back and listen to the communities who live with and through the biological diversity and system diversity that remains. This lecture describes one collaboration in the Western Pacific where scholars and practitioners choose the second path."
