The New Conservationists: Meet the Next Generation of Conservationists (Part 3)

In this podcast episode, we explore the changing world of conservation and the critical need for increased diversity and inclusion in this field. The discussion features two compelling case studies: Isaac Aguilar, a Latino conservation scientist tackling the issue of invasive ants in California, who highlights the significance of representation and making conservation accessible to all; and the Black Mambas, an all-women anti-poaching unit in South Africa, which showcases a community-focused, non-violent approach that values local knowledge and involvement. Together, these stories illustrate how diverse perspectives and inclusive practices are essential for effectively addressing the complex challenges in conservation today.
