Summary
We will increase the capability of early-career conservationists outside high-income countries to conduct successful conservation projects that reduce poverty and increasing wellbeing. To do this, we will co-develop a new livelihoods, health, poverty and wellbeing in conservation (LHPWC) training module. We will deliver the module to 24 EDGE Fellowship awardees, provide two years of close mentorship to aid Fellows in achieving objectives related to LHPWC, and disseminate the training materials to an additional 361 conservationists worldwide.
