How do or should systematic conservation planning and adaptive management relate? A symposium in Cape Town on Wednesday 22 October examined the increasingly-discussed but not clearly resolved issue of how systematic conservation planning and adaptive management inter-relate.
Systematic conservation planning and adaptive management claim to support each other, but in reality an appropriate mix often does not eventualise. The symposium at Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden, Cape Town, South Africa, 22 to 23 October 2008, featured key speakers including Chris Margules and Richard Cowling.
This was followed by a one-and-a-half day proposal-refining workshop on Wednesday 22 October and Thursday 23 October for the exciting initiative: “The use of economic incentives in conservation-orientated regional management”The symposim and workshop was arranged by: EfD South Africa/EPRU/University of Cape Town, RA Node in SA, SANBI and SANParks
