Management Planning for Conservation Sites
August 17, 2022 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm
| Free – $20
REGISTER TO ATTEND
As an ecological consultant and bush crew manager for 30 years, Lincoln Kern, Managing Director, has written and implemented many conservation management plans.
Recent discussions held between ecological consultants (ECA Vic members) and ecological onground restoration specialists (AABR members) identified a common interest in seeking improved management planning for conservation sites. But these conversations also prompted concerns about the quality and effectiveness of current management planning, the outcomes that then flow from them and how this might be improved.
Management planning is a common and critical part of the planning and land management process. Doing it well is an important part of conserving biodiversity yet the planning, decision making and implementation phases can be hampered by lack of guidance, background information, resources or time to develop good thinking, process, templates and/or standards.
Lincoln will present a brief analysis of the issues around management planning for conservation sites, some of the problems that arise out of the current system, offer some solutions and make some recommendations for prompting more discussions and efforts to improve the effectiveness of the process in the broader planning and land management industry.
There will also be time for your questions.
