Capacity building
Improving the interpretation of genetic data for management and policy
Combining efforts and resources to achieve greater impact
A major goal of the CCG is to build capacity through international collaboration, to better equip countries to monitor and report on genetic diversity. By drawing on a global community of conservation genetics experts through our member organizations, we develop policy and management guidance documents, and training materials to support scientists, conservation groups, and policy makers.
What we’re doing to make a difference
A conservation genetics database
Coming soon: The Society for Conservation Biology is creating a database to connect geneticists with conservation practitioners.
Guidance documents and policy briefs
Experts from the CCG and affiliated organizations contribute to guidance documents and policy briefs, providing clear recommendations and relevant case studies for monitoring genetic diversity.
Connect with our networks
Consider becoming a member of one of our participating groups, or get in touch if you’re part of another organization or professional society that is incorporating genetics in species management and conservation.
