FACILITATING SPECIES CONSERVATION PLANNING PROCESSES

23 September-27 September 2019

The course is designed to build capacity for the effective facilitation of species conservation planning processes. The course is relevant to conservation professionals and academics working within zoos, universities and field programs, and in particular, those involved in or wishing to be involved in, developing conservation plans.

  • By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
  • Demonstrate how to facilitate effective workshops and meetings
  • Apply the ‘One Plan Approach’ to species conservation processes
  • Deal with conflict under different circumstances
  • Demonstrate effective listening skills
  • Describe how to provide feedback to individuals to improve relationships and work effectively

Course fee: $1,250 (includes transportation to and from Jacksonville International airport, overnight accommodations at White Oak, and all meals).
