Webinar Recording: Presentation of Prototype Tools and Guidance for Community-led Conservation.
Thank you to everyone who joined our webinars last week as we shared early prototypes of tools and guidance to strengthen community-led conservation.
Your insights and feedback are already helping us refine the next versions.
If you couldn’t attend, recordings from both sessions (Asia–Pacific/Africa/Europe and North America/South America) are now available on our YouTube channel.
Please visit our sub-page for this project to access prototypes of the tools and to learn how to provide feedback. Your input is essential as we co-design practical resources for Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities.
CoP Indigenous CS Projects - YouTube Channel
To help us keep connected and better share and learn from each other, the CoP Indigenous CS Projects has set up its own YouTube Channel where we are posting our webinars. You can find on our channel our webinars from 2023 - while we are already preparing our webinars for 2024, where we will showcase how the CS have been used around the world with Indigenous People and Local Communities. If there is a topic that you would like us to cover in a webinar - please get in touch with us via EMAIL.
Expression of Interest - CoP Coordinating Committee
Get involved! The CoP Indigenous CS Projects is seeking volunteers to join the CoP Indigenous CS Projects Coordinating Committee. The Community of Practice is part of the Conservation Coaches Network (CCNet) and its mission is to support Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities (IPLCs) by increasing access to relevant adaptations of the Conservation Standards, to foster community-led conservation initiatives on IPLC territories.
To expand our representation, we seek:
two new representatives from Pacific Island nations to represent Oceania.
For a more detailed description of the roles and to express your interest, please refer to the Expression of Interest and submit a short EOI addressing the criteria to CopIndigenousCSProjects@gmail.com by Friday, February 16th, 2024. Since the CoP Indigenous CS Projects focus on work with IPLCs, we prioritise expressions of interest from IPLCs.
We have a discussion forum, the CCNet Indigenous Projects ListServ, for practitioners who are part of CCNet’s Community of Practice: Conservation Standards Projects with Indigenous Communities. This forum reaches across national, cultural, and organizational boundaries to enable Indigenous Groups and conservation practitioners who collaborate in Indigenous CS Projects to share experiences, useful tools, and opportunities relating to their application of the Conservation Standards and adaptations such as Healthy Country Planning. Topics in this group relate to the practice of conservation and sustainable development in projects managed by and/or where resources are owned by Indigenous Communities.

The forum started in May of 2019. If you are a subscriber, you can view the full archive.
