What IS community conservation, anyway? What makes it different from other ways of conserving biodiversity? Find out in 90 seconds.

Community conservation is really the best of both worlds - where local knowledge and global scientific effort come together to protect biodiversity. The ultimate goal is to make a plan that protects nature while also considering the needs of local people.

In a good community-based conservation project, people who actually live near the rare species (or biodiversity hotspot) under threat are involved from the very beginning. The process begins with honest conversations: talking through the situation to discover the community’s needs and values, as well as what benefits could potentially come from conservation (like better living conditions, or even ecotourism).

Quick correction - the photo at :42 is actually Jon Lyons, who was a big help to the project as well! 1:01 is Rob. Thank you Barry H. for pointing that out!
