Conservation is a crisis discipline, and one that is arguably failing. As we face an unprecedented rate of extinction, how do we mainstream biodiversity conservation into global decision-making and sustainable development?

In this talk, Professor Leah Gerber will describe a theory of change for addressing the biodiversity crisis by integrating innovation with boundary-spanning work.

Providing examples from a decade of work in leading Arizona State University’s Center for Biodiversity Outcomes, she will discuss ways to bring biodiversity into global decision making and to establish a replicable model for effective conservation.
