............................................... Symposium: Analysing Social Networks for Conservation Decision-making Room 302 Monday, July 22, 8:00 to 10:00 Organizer(s): Jonathan Rhodes, The University of Queensland; Örjan Bodin, Stockhom Resilience Centre Monday Integrating social science with ecology to inform conservation is one of the greatest challenges we face as conservation scientists. Characterising social systems as networks of interacting actors provides a powerful tool for achieving this. This symposium will bring together a multidisciplinary panel of speakers to showcase novel approaches for integrating social networks with ecology to inform conservation decision-making. The past two decades have seen an explosion of interest in structured approaches to conservation decision-making (Wilson et al. 2009). However, the vast majority of these tools either fail to consider social processes, or consider them in a highly simplified way. At the same time, analyses of networks of interacting actors, based on tools such as social network theory and game theory, have emerged as important methods for understanding the influence of social processes on natural resource management success (Ostrom 1990, Bodin and Prell 2011). Despite this, it is only recently that conservation biologists have begun to integrate social networks into conservation planning (Bode et al. 2011, Vance-Borland and Holley 2011). By highlighting recent developments in how the analysis of social networks can be incorporated into conservation decision-making, and the benefits of doing so, this symposium will make a significant contribution to the ability of conservation scientists and practitioners to integrate human social processes into biodiversity conservation. 08:00 How might insights gained from stakeholder network analysis be integrated into conservation decision-support tools Ken Vance-Borland, The Conservation Planning Institute 08:15 ‘Treating networks seriously’ in conservation management: How a network approach enhances our understanding of collective action and adaptive capacity Annica Sandström, Stockholm Resilience Centre 08:30 The Problem of Fit: Comparing Social and Ecological Connectivity in Land-use Planning using a spatially explicit network approach Örjan Bodin, Stockholm Resilience Centre 08:45 Assessing the effectiveness of collaboration networks across large-scale conservation corridors Angela Guerrero-Gonzalez, The University of Queensland 09:00 When do Social Networks Matter for Dynamic Conservation Planning Problems Jonathan Rhodes, The University of Queensland 09:15 The organisation of social networks for the optimal management of ecological networks Iadine Chadés, CSIRO 09:30 Interactions between independent mangers changes the invasion of widespread weeds Shaun Coutts, The University of Queensland Open discussion period follows from 9:45 to 10:00. ............................................... Symposium: Integrating Conservation Research and Practice: Social Processes for a High- Impact Research Agenda Room 303 Monday, July 22, 8:00 to 10:00 Organizer(s): Heather Arnold, Nature Conservancy of Canada; Jensen Reitz Montambault, The Nature Conservancy; Marie Tremblay, The Nature Conservancy of Canada As the ceaseless urgency to curb the biodiversity crisis meets a battered economy with yet tighter public funding for research, there is a growing need to ensure that conservation research is both relevant to practitioners, and solution-oriented. Whereas practitioners and land managers require research that is applicable to evidence-based and adaptive management, barriers exist to generating and accessing it, leading to a continued and undue reliance on anecdote and unverified opinion. Meanwhile, dedicated researchers may be personally motivated to make meaningful contributions toward solving pressing conservation problems but professional disincentives and funding criteria, often biased against real-world applied research, may discourage them. While individual efforts in the last two decades have made great strides to bridge the gap between conservation research and practice, now is the time to break down the systemic barriers that continue to perpetuate the divide. In this symposium a coalition of academics, funders and practitioners builds on a growing array of success stories and proposes a new way forward, one in which researchers and practitioners are full partners in the systematic co-creation of the research agenda. The proposed 56
symposium is of direct relevance to the conference theme because it brings together multiple stakeholders to seek an integrated solution to a complex and deep-rooted problem that is central to the entire discipline of conservation biology. 08:00 Marrying research and practice: the role of conservation practitioners in the ‘happily ever after’ of a high-impact research agenda Heather Arnold and Marie Tremblay, Nature Conservancy of Canada 08:15 Working science: making information valuable to conservation decision-makers Dr. Jensen Reitz Montambault, The Nature Conservancy 08:30 Practitioner-academic partnerships: is this the way of the future Dr. Kelly Biedenweg, Natural Capital Project 08:45 Stepping out of the Ivory Tower while still calling it home: tales from the trenches Dr. Drew Tyre, University of Nebraska-Lincoln 09:00 Supporting applied research through public funding for pure science Dr. Sean Watts, AAAS S&T Fellow, Assigned to NSF 09:15 In Search of the Elusive Private Foundation: Can We Match More Researchers with Private Funding in the Field Jeremy Guth, Woodcock Foundation 09:30 Bringing talent to the table - providing incentives, opportunities, and collaborative structures for scientists to influence conservation Dr. Josh Tewksbury, WWF International Monday Open discussion period follows from 9:45 to 10:00 ...............................................
