Trade-offs are everywhere in conservation ⚖️ we are often left wondering: how we can protect nature while also supporting local communities? Our Kebersamaan Untuk Lautan project in Aceh, Indonesia, is simple: we compensate small-scale fishers if they safely release endangered #sharks


3/ PhD studentship on “Socioeconomic and equity implications of other effective area-based conservation measures in community-managed forests🌳🇳🇵” Supervised by Dr Mahesh Poudyal (DICEl), co-supervised by Dr Matthew Struebig (DICE) and Dr Naya Sharma Paudel (Forest Action, Nepal)



Huge thanks to the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) and ShaneWinser for hosting an away day for our research group @KewScience. Where else could you talk science a few steps away from Captain Scott’s sledge and over one million maps.



Pleased to share our latest publication in Trends in Ecology & Evolution highlighting the importance of #agrobiodiversity conservation for enabling sustainable and equitable land sharing 🫛🥬 ➡️ doi.org/10.1016/j.tree… Dr James Borrell @KewScience
