Next-generation Monitoring of Human-nature Interactions

10 September 2024, 9.00 AM - 11 September 2024, 5.00 PM

Dr. Laura Thomas-Walters (Yale University) & Dr. Oscar Morton (University of Cambridge)

London

A British Ecological Society event, bringing together researchers across disciplines to innovate and develop new approaches to monitor human-nature interactions. 

Attendees will be split into teams and tasked with developing a short and fast-paced research project to improve our understanding of human-nature interactions, especially in relation to the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF). This format resembles a ‘hackathon’ but with a twist, as teams will cut across disciplines (e.g. ecologists, social scientists, psychologists, computer scientists) and methods (quantitative and qualitative) creating an exciting interdisciplinary and innovative atmosphere.

Potential projects could review how human-nature interactions fit into the GBF, develop novel online interaction indicators, validate existing approaches, or consider how to leverage behavioral change to promote biodiversity recovery.
