The twin crises of climate change and biodiversity loss are two of the biggest threats facing humanity and the many species with which we share our planet, and on which we depend. Accurate and reliable assessment of biodiversity is critical to understanding our impact on the natural world and how to achieve ecosystem recovery.
Join the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) UK Peatland Programme for this free webinar to explore traditional and technological approaches to measuring biodiversity and how they are being applied in restoring and conserving our precious peatlands.
Attendees will hear from:
Brian Eversham, CEO of the Wildlife Trust for Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Northamptonshire
Jenna Lawson, Ecological Network Coordinator at the UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology
Nathan Thomas, Project Development and Community Engagement Officer at Lancashire Peat Partnership
Jessica Gauld, PhD student in peatland palaeoecology at the University of Manchester
Joe Anderson, Biodiversity Crediting Project Officer at the IUCN UK Peatland Programme
The talks will be followed by a Q&A session with all the speakers.
