We just finished our third conversation in our biodiversity conservation series on Changing the Conversation. We had an outstanding e-panel of committed scholars, practitioners and decision-makers that discussed the drivers and barriers for biodiversity conservation.

We discovered there are a lot of great initiatives on the ground, with another just announced. The Seychelles is set to create two huge marine parks in a world-first finance scheme. Something that was also highlighted during our e-conversation was the need to involve the private sector and strategic partnerships that bridge existing initiatives.
