INTRINSIC: Integrating rights and social issues in conservation

Contemporary conservation practice involves working with communities and other groups of people. This requires knowledge about social systems that are often not gained through conservationist professionals’ traditional education. These free resources will help address this crucial capacity gap.

WildHub Community Manager, WildTeam UK

My background is mainly in species conservation, education and capacity development. I researched mother-young interactions in gorillas and chimpanzees, in captivity and the wild. After that, I worked for three years in Indonesia, where I developed and implemented youth ambassador and community engagement programmes on local and regional scales. I work as Community Manager at WildHub since 2020, and I am an Associate Member of the Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology (DICE) at the University of Kent where I obtained my PhD on capacity development for conservation in 2022.

Forgot to ask you: would you be able to invite 1-2 conservation professionals to WildHub who could benefit from these materials as well? This way we can spread our knowledge even wider! You will find the invite button on our homepage. Thanks, Sheyka!
