Coexistence Consortium
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 16 มี.ค. 2023
We are a network of conservation researchers and practitioners with a common vision to understand coexistence between people and wildlife, and to highlight that it is not only important to conserve wild animals locked away in far-off pockets in forests but also to coexist with nature and wildlife around us.
The long-term vision of this collective is to use an experimental and evidence-based approach to catalyse a range of context-specific human-wildlife coexistence projects around the world.

So you think, therefore you are? by Dhee
In this talk, Dhee looks to explore the nature of our relationships with other-than-human beings. How do we perceive others? How does our perception of the other’s ability to think define the way we interact with them? How does this shape the way we share space with our ‘wild’ neighbours? Drawing from stories, experiences and insights from multiple rural and indigenous communities, the talk will unravel the relationships that unfold when communities consider animals as thinking beings.

Direct Intervention Tech in Reducing Conflicts and Improving Coexistence with Various Species.
มุมมอง 353 หลายเดือนก่อน
About the talk: Scientific studies and research have established the behavioural patterns of wild animals across the last few decades and with an increase in population growth of humans, there has been an increasing interaction between wildlife and human beings, especially in a densely populated country like India. Often these interactions end up causing a larger conflict that is detrimental bo...

How do we decide baselines for restoration? Insights from 10,000 years of disturbance
มุมมอง 936 หลายเดือนก่อน
About the talk: As conservationists, we aim to conserve forests so that wildlife may have suitable habitat for existence. Yet, forests are not a static entity and may change through time due to climate, fire, herbivory and human action, and these changes may occur at very long time periods. The forest we are seeing today may be fairly recent, and the wildlife we see in the forests today may ref...
'Whose coexistence?’ Animal, spirit and human agency in Arunachal Pradesh by Sahil Nijhawan
มุมมอง 1608 หลายเดือนก่อน
‘Whose coexistence?’ Animal, spirit and human agency in Arunachal Pradesh. For many Indigenous, tribal and local communities, life is a constant negotiation between humans and a range of nonhumans, including spirits and animals. In these contexts, ancestral norms and spirit agency govern how people should interact with wildlife, often maintaining conditions for coexistence. But what happens to ...

Coexistence Under Threat in the Salai Forest of Kuno by Asmita Kabra | CoexistenceInPractice Series
Wonderful 💚
Have heard this "hoo" call at the wildlife institute of India, dehradun from juveniles. But the scenario is different, they will be sitting alone on the tree or floor. As per my observation, they are making this call cause of loneliness, when any individuals go beside them. They were stopping that call.
