Workshops
Moving forward with climate smart conservation
The aim of the workshops is to build capacity to incorporate climate change vulnerability assessment and adaptation action into ongoing conservation projects, focusing on coastal and marine areas used by marine turtlesObjectives
During a three day workshop, we:
- examine climate change-related threats to marine turtles and coastal/marine habitats
- identify and explore tools for monitoring, assessing vulnerability and selecting and prioritizing adaptation measures
- explore the challenge of communicating climate change
- secure collaboration and support in addressing climate change
Participants come away with the knowledge and tools they need to start addressing the impacts of climate change, with ongoing support from a growing network of adaptation practitioners. If you are interested in organizing or taking part in a workshop, please contact Marianne Fish (mfish@wwfcanada.org).
