Protecting the Rainforest Starts with Its Original Stewards.
Indigenous communities mobilizing to conserve the vulnerable and endangered species of their ancestral lands is not just a beautiful idea, but a powerful strategy for the next generation of conservation leaders to learn.
With a recent publication in Sustainability, ACEER’s research team and Conservation Leaders are exploring how traditional hunting practices work in favor of local sustainable wildlife management.
By pairing deep cultural traditions with data-driven ecological models, this publication helps show that the strongest foundation for protecting the rainforest starts with supporting its original stewards through adaptive co-management.
