22-23 (Thursday-Friday) November 2012, Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh
Scotland's five year Species
Action Framework (SAF) programme ended in March this year. This programme
advanced conservation and management action for 32 of Scotland's species –
including: beaver, red squirrel, sea eagle, capercaillie, freshwater pearl
mussel, great yellow bumblebee, woolly willow and invasive non-native species
such as North American signal crayfish.
SNH is holding a conference
to highlight the results, pass on experiences and look ahead at what needs to
be done. We will cover a wide range of activities spanning on-the-ground
conservation, tackling species conflicts and invasive non-native species, and
developing novel approaches to sustainable use and management. See the flyer for more details.
The conference programme
is available and Session 5 on Day 2 will be of particular interest to Forum
members. It will consider Conflicts and
Sustainable Management with presentations by, amongst others: Steve Redpath,
Des Thompson, Simon Lester (Langholm Headkeeper) and Susan Davies.
