Trevor Sandwith of IUCN talks about the Global Protected Areas Programme

VIDEO LINK to TREVOR SANDWITH's CAPE TOWN TALK


On 28 Jan 2011, Trevor Sandwith, now stationed at IUCN headquarters in Switzerland, revisited his old stomping ground in Cape Town, and made time to share his current global perspective of protected area thinking.    His former colleagues gathered in the seminar room of the Kirstenbosch Research Centre, and to a packed house he presented a wide-ranging backdrop to his new role as Leader of IUCN's Global  Protected Areas Programme.    His prestentation was videographed, and then spliced together with his powerpoint,  and has now been posted on You Tube (in three 15minute slices presented as a playlist).


Please visit You Tube at < THIS LINK>  if you would like to share in this cutting edge of thinking, researching,  planning and action around the challenges of biodiversity conservation and ecosystem management in the face of suites of globally significant changes.   A thought-provoking presentation, and an insight into the IUCN position on these weighty issues.
