DESCRIPTION:

This course combines guided instruction, collaborative learning, and real-world application to help participants design more strategic, adaptive, and impactful conservation initiatives. Grounded in the Conservation Standards—a widely used framework for conservation planning, implementation, monitoring, and adaptive management—the course focuses not only on developing strong plans based on systems thinking, but on helping teams work effectively together in the face of complexity, uncertainty, and competing priorities.

By the end of the course, participants will have developed key elements of a strategic conservation plan while gaining hands-on experience using tools and approaches that can be applied directly within their own organizations, partnerships, and landscapes.
