• Wild species which are problematic in conflicts worldwide will be listed and illustrated.
• International bodies that deal with HWC will be mentioned.
• Principles of HWC mitigation (that apply across many species) will be emphasised and explained.
• Case studies on the major HWC conflict species in Africa will be used to illustrate HWC mitigation measures in practice.
• Ways of evaluating the success of these HWC mitigation measures will be discussed.
• Topics for advocacy by researchers on national HWC policies will be discussed.

 

*** invited by Dr. Pedro Gerstberger (former BayCEER member, Plant Ecology) and Prof. Dr. Steven Higgins (Professor Plant Ecology)

 

 Sondertermin ohne Post-Kolloquium.
