The balance between providing resources for a growing and technologically advanced population and protecting biodiversity is an ever-increasing problem.
In this activity, students gain an insight into the work of researchers at The University of Oxford’s Interdisciplinary Centre for Conservation Science (ICCS) and model the conflict between development and the needs of people and the environment. They role play a stakeholder meeting between local villagers and developers, mediated by conservation researchers, to see if they can come to an agreement on proposed development ideas.
Learning Outcomes:
- Students learn what conservation is and why it is important
- Students discuss negative and positive environmental and social impacts of development to make a decision.
