biology, data analysis and management and socioeconomic capacity.

Lasting conservation of biodiversity across the ecoregion requires an interdisciplinary approach that ensures both biological rigor and creative solutions that are reflective of overarching socioeconomic and political realities. These capacities may stem from either the lead organization responsible for development of the plan, from partner organizations and from influential individuals.

Recommended Products
A team with the technical skills and experience to engage a wide range of technical staffs, policymakers, and stakeholders, and led by a knowledgeable, energetic, and respected ecoregional coordinator.
