Defenders of Wildlife's Center for Conservation Innovation Pioneers Endangered Species Recovery
The Center for Conservation Innovation at Defenders of Wildlife has made significant strides in enhancing endangered species recovery. It recently conducted the first evaluation of climate change considerations in species recovery plans, marking a crucial step in addressing current and emerging conservation challenges.
The center, dedicated to improving wildlife conservation in the U.S., employs a multifaceted approach. It develops and applies new technologies, such as a habitat change detection tool, to aid conservation practitioners. Furthermore, it critically assesses proposed policies, like evaluating the impact of pesticides on imperiled species, ensuring science-based decision-making.
The center's work is not confined to evaluation alone. It combines science, technology, and creativity to imagine and shape new conservation policies. For instance, it has completed the first-ever analysis of section 7 of the Endangered Species Act. Additionally, it makes data-based recommendations on funding needs for the act, advocating for solutions through a suite of techniques and partnerships.
The Center for Conservation Innovation at Defenders of Wildlife continues to pioneer innovative, pragmatic solutions. Its work, ranging from the first evaluation of climate change in recovery plans to the first analysis of section 7 of the Endangered Species Act, is creating the next generation of wildlife policies and practices. By combining science, technology, and policy, the center is effectively shaping a future where endangered species have a fighting chance.
