Calls for information
  • York University has a survey for conservation NGOs and practitioners to understand how rights relate to their work, and if/how they take a rights-based approach to conservation. The survey is designed to be answered on behalf of NGOs but independent respondents without organisational affiliation are also welcome. The deadline for the survey is 8 July
