2020 Irish Conference: Conservation Approaches to Benefit Biodiversity: Big Ideas for Big Challenges

Sponsored by:

Description

As awareness of the challenges facing biodiversity conservation increases, our work as ecologists and environmental managers will inevitably come under the spotlight. How can we take advantage of new tools and emerging policy approaches that are becoming available to us? Green infrastructure planning, biodiversity net gain, rewilding, ecosystem services assessment and natural capital tools: how do these concepts help us in our work to halt biodiversity loss?

This conference will explore these approaches, looking at how we can use them in a practical setting to achieve the best outcomes for biodiversity enhancement. We will showcase sector-specific examples of how they are applied across a range of landscapes and habitats. We will also explore how they fit into the planning system and current legal and policy requirements. Delegates will get a bigger picture of biodiversity conservation in Ireland and understand where different approaches are appropriate and how to get the best results in their work.

Bookings Close at 5pm on 21 April. 

Due to the current restrictions in place to limit the spread of covid-19, we have made the decision to revise the format of our Irish Conference. The two-day conference organised to take place in Galway will no longer be going ahead and instead the conference will run as a one-day online event from 9.30am to 4.15pm on Wednesday 22 April.

 

We would like to invite you to join us for the conference and to embrace the new format which we hope will offer a way for our members and the wider ecology community to join together virtually and for CIEEM to continue to offer support and continued learning opportunities to our members during this challenging time. We want to thank you all for your support and engagement as CIEEM work to continue to support yourselves and the sector in the best way that we can.
