Environmental degradation has led to unprecedented losses in both species and habitats and is estimated to affect the wellbeing of 40 per cent of the world’s population – 3.2 billion people. The devastation of these natural systems, including through climatic change, is most acutely felt by the world’s poorest – those who are least responsible for causing it and arguably the least well-prepared to withstand it.
Join Jersey Overseas Aid (JOA) and experts from the RSPB and Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust for a discussion on how, through JOA’s Conservation Livelihoods theme, pioneering projects in Sierra Leone and Madagascar are tackling climate change, biodiversity loss and multidimensional poverty, in an integrated way.
