During the #DortmundConference, one of the key themes of the @LeadersSouthern representatives was the need for respect between Europe and Africa when working together on environmental issues. @lubilo_rodgers of Zambia emphasised this point. #LetAfricansDecide #conservation #CBNRM

Really good to see local African voices, eg. @MaxiPiaLouis1, finally being heard more in the media on issues which directly affect them, eg trophy hunting. #Conservation has a long colonial past & we shouldn't be neo-colonial now. Good work @pgreenfielduk https://t.co/rHS4GjCaCf

"Resource use without resource management is non-sustainable. But equally any attempt to establish resource management without resource use is likely to be futile" Wise words from the great Marshall Murphree who, sadly, has passed away. https://t.co/a72vcUvfUl #WildlifeEconomy
