The annual Biodiversity Conservation Horizon Scan is a forward-looking initiative which regularly identifies the most critical conservation issues to watch out for on the future of our planet. Published this past December in Trends in Ecology & Evolution, the 2024 scan, led by Professor Bill Sutherland at Cambridge University, highlights 15 pressing emerging issues resulting from intertwined climate and biodiversity impacts and advancing technologies with incredible potential for conservation. One of our very own, Nafeesa Esmail, Conservation Research and Strategy Advisor, played a pivotal role as a co-author in this proactive research. Her insights shed light on forward-looking conservation strategies for a brighter future.
