The research project ‘Conservation Labor: A New Frontier in Labor Theory and Conservation Science (CONLAB)’ is doing a global survey of people who work in conservation or for a conservation organisation or institution in any capacity.

The objective is to gain an overview of the type of work being done in the conservation sector, the experience people bring with them, the needs, challenges, and opportunities faced, and how all this is changing. A better understanding of the work being done in conservation, or conservation labor, is vital to improve conservation outcomes.

The survey should take around 20 minutes, does not ask for names, and is available in English, Spanish, Portuguese and French. Full information, including a participant information sheet and a link to the survey itself, can be found here: https://www.cmi.no/projects/2926-conservation-labor-a-new-frontier-in-labor-theory-and-conservation-science-conlab#global-conservation-labour-survey

I'm not involved in this work - I'm just reposting to broaden their reach. I'm not sure what the deadline is, but the survey is still accepting responses in January

Thanks!
