Update on Human-Wildlife Conflict

Managing Conflicts over Wildlife

Dear Colleagues,

Elephant_Cropped HWC Thailand.jpg

Through this email we are reconnecting on the recently concluded online training series on “Managing Conflicts over Wildlife” held between May 19 and June 10, 2021. We hope to keep you informed about GWP activities and events on human-wildlife conflict (HWC) through this mailing list.

 

We had four sessions, one each for Latin America and the Caribbean, Asia, and two sessions for Africa. Overall, we had around 150 participants from 30 GWP national projects and three Amazon Sustainable Landscapes (ASL) Program projects, representing a total 33 countries.  


Please find a copy of the training materials here:


A brief summary of the training is available here. For more GWP resources on human-wildlife conflict, visit the GWP’s webpage on HWC for videos, blogs, and publications. The GWP also recently published the French version of the community-based electric fence guide.  


If you've received this message from a colleague, and you'd like to sign up to receive our periodic updates on HWC-related news from the GWP and our partners, write to us here to get on the list.
