On November 23, 2023, SSWG and SCB Africa co-hosted a webinar titled “Challenges and Opportunities in the Conservation Social Sciences Across Africa”. This event was a celebration of the use of Social Sciences in Africa, where we discussed the challenges faced and the future opportunities in this field. We were fortunate to have four great speakers share their experiences, followed by a Q&A session and a group breakout session for a more detailed discussion on the challenges and opportunities in the Social Sciences.


Speakers included:

  • Amemarlita Matos – Conservation Practitioner & Researcher
  • Harrison Ajebe Nnoko Nnaaje – Executive President of AJESH
  • Meed Mbidzo Lecturer at The Namibia University of Science and Technology 
  • Taryn Pereira – Researcher at Coastal Justice Network
