Policy
Leveraging genetics expertise to inform policy
The science-policy interface
Keeping abreast of emerging national and international conservation policy is key to our mission. We engage with policy by issuing policy briefs, providing technical comments on proposed policy drafts, and presenting genetics workshops for non-expert policy makers.
What we’re doing to make a difference
Convention on Biological Diversity
Leveraging our group’s international composition and breadth of conservation genetics experience, we are working to inform the integration of genetic diversity into protections for wild populations of plants and animals.
Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES)
Coming soon: We are exploring opportunities to inform the inclusion of genetic diversity in the IPBES futures framework.
International Union for Conservation of Nature
Coming soon: Integrating genetic diversity into IUCN’s Red List.
