- **Event Description**: Hear from world-leading conservation practitioners on how they deliver effective and efficient protected area management.About this EventApplying data-driven tools to deliver effecitve and efficient protected area management and tackle conservation challenges.Target 3 of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework aims for the effective conservation and management of at least 30% of global land and sea by 2030, but this ambition is undermined by chronically under-resourced management and the current lack of robust systems to measure management effectiveness in many areas worldwide.This broader context provides the backdrop for this event, which introduces the SMART–EarthRanger Conservation Alliance (SERCA), a new, pioneering, global collaboration to revolutionize protected area management. SMART (which focuses on adaptive management and data-driven decisions) and EarthRanger (which delivers real-time intelligence to managers) exist to help practitioners assess and strengthen protected and conserved area (PCA) management. SERCA unites these tools and approaches under one banner, extending their collective reach and impact to over 2,000 areas across more than 100 countries, and drawing on the expertise and skills of nine conservation organizations.In this event, you’ll hear from some of the world’s leading conservation practitioners on their experiences working with partners to apply SERCA tools to help improve management effectiveness and efficiency across a diversity of sites, landscapes and use cases. We’ll explore the ways that established and new technology is being used to aid management practices, from more traditional-based patrolling or wildlife surveys to more sophisticated area-based management. Finally, we’ll explore how greater collaboration and alignment among these approaches presents a critical opportunity to build more comprehensive, integrated systems for adaptive PCA management, thus addressing the challenge of effectiveness at the necessary scale and with urgency.SpeakersXia Stephens, Panthera - Integrated use of SMART and EarthRanger for effective patrolling in the Kafue landscape, ZambiaTom Bruce, ZSL - Use of SMART for systematic biodiversity monitoring in the Dja LandscapeJes Lefcourt, Allen Institute for AI - The value of real-time intelligence in PCA managementNara Batdorj, Wildlife Conservation Society - Lessons learned from a national adoption of SMART in MongoliaFreya Larsen, Frankfurt Zoological Society - How technology tools can be used to collate data to track the impact of area-based conservationAnthony Dancer, ZSL - Advancing global collaboration to strengthen management effectiveness of protected and conserved areaCleo Smart, SMART-EarthRanger Conservation Alliance - The future: The SMART-EarthRanger Conservation AllianceAttending this eventThis event is free to attend but registration is required so we can monitor event numbers.The event will feature a presentation from the author, followed by a Q&amp;A discussion.
