Executive Director of the Canadian Sea Turtle Network giving a talk at Dal tomorrow.

The SRES Seminar this week features Kathleen Martin who will be presenting on "Peace and conflict in conservation: Lessons from leatherbacks."
Everyone Welcome!
Kathleen Martin
Executive Director, Canadian Sea Turtle Network
formerly Nova Scotia Leatherback Turtle Working Group
Friday, September 26, 4:00 p.m.
Room 1014, Kenneth C. Rowe Management Building
6100 University Avenue
People who understand the value of conservation are often frustrated by the legions of people--including politicians, business leaders, the general public, and perhaps most important, resource users--who seem unable to understand its value. Real environmental change will come only when we are able to effectively communicate and work with these groups. In this seminar, I'll talk about what I've learned in this regard from a decade of working with commercial fishers to conserve the endangered leatherback sea turtle.
