Outback Conversations #4 - Conservation during recovery
In this webinar, Dr Barry Traill, from The Pew Charitable Trusts and Jimmy Cocking from Arid Lands Environment Centre address the following questions:
How can we create opportunities for jobs in the Outback through stimulus recovery efforts?
What are the opportunities that are created through environmental conservation, natural resource management, land management and farming?
Barry leads The Pew Charitable Trusts’ conservation work in Australia, and is a strong advocate for more people to be on country in order for the landscape to be conserved and managed.
Jimmy is an outside of the box, strategic thinker who is interested in complex systems theory and sustainable development, particularly interactions between sub- and supra-national regions eg. Central Australia in Asia Pacific.
