Summary
Urgent action is required to empower local conservationists and organisations in response to climate change and biodiversity loss. Essential skills like project management and fundraising are often lacking in their education. Our project trains East African university instructors to deliver practical conservation courses, equipping the next generation of conservationists for career progression and enhanced conservation efforts. The aim is to create a more inclusive, effective, and locally led conservation workforce.
