Conservation and Sustainable Development

About this course

Protecting biodiversity and supporting local and Indigenous people are too often treated as competing goals. In "Conservation and Sustainable Development," you'll explore where those goals conflict, overlap, and evolve together, drawing on real-world case studies from around the globe. You will learn about the complex, intertwined relationship between global conservation efforts and human development. Rather than viewing environmental protection and human progress as separate or competing goals, you’ll examine their overlap, conflict, and evolution together on a global scale. This is the first course in the "Climate Solutions series," a three-course series on addressing climate change with innovative, community-centered strategies that protect biodiversity for the benefit of all.
