WEBINAR
May 29, 2024
1:00pm - 3:00pm
Key Biodiversity Areas and Species at Risk with Peter Soroye, KBA Assessment and Outreach Coordinator, Wildlife Conservation Society Canada
The diversity of life on Earth – the entire array of plants, animals and their habitats, collectively known as “biodiversity” – is essential for a healthy planet where all life can thrive. But the loss of biodiversity is occurring at an alarming rate across the planet. Key Biodiversity Areas (KBA), which are among the most incredible and diverse places on Earth for nature, from deserts to the middle of the ocean, are sites of global importance to the planet’s overall health and the persistence of biodiversity. Join Peter Soroye, KBA Assessment and Outreach Coordinator with Wildlife Conservation Society Canada, as he discusses the importance of KBAs and the even greater need for Indigenous collaboration and involvement in the KBA process.
