Utilisation de technologies innovantes pour améliorer les résultats des projets de conservation

Pourquoi assister à cette session?
This session will highlight how innovative technologies, collaborative partnerships, and a ground-up approach have developed and scaled a comprehensive suite of integrated tools and approaches that have not only improved conservation outcomes and protected area management, but also built the capacity of thousands of practitioners around the world.
HideDescription
The rapid development of new technologies is changing the way we collect, access, and use information to conserve biodiversity. Technology-based solutions seeking to solve complex challenges have proliferated as conservation area management capacity has sought to keep pace with increasing human pressures. However, these technologies are often developed outside the context of conservation, have limited scalability, or are provided with limited support. This session will demonstrate how innovative uses of technology can help achieve biodiversity objectives by empowering practitioners, meeting critical frontline needs, and emphasizing conservation outcomes. Panelists will present a comprehensive series of case studies on the application of SMART, a free and open-source suite of integrated tools used in more than 1000 sites across 70 countries that has revolutionized the way protected areas are managed and has become the most widely used protected area management solution globally.
