About this listen
While the outlook for biodiversity is rather bleak, all the evidence says conservation works - we just need to do it well and do it more. It sounds simple, but often well-intended interventions have unintended consequences, or aren’t very effective, or become unmanageable over time. How do we learn the important lessons, what does success mean in this context, and how does someone in Jeremy’s line of work remain hopeful?
Jeremy Lindsell has been working on globally threatened species and tropical forest conservation for over 20 years, latterly as A Rocha International’s Director of Conservation & Science. He has been closely involved with A Rocha’s major campaign to protect the Atewa Forest in Ghana, leading field research in the forest, supervising studies, raising funds and building an international coalition to support the conservation of this highly distinctive forest.
