SCB Social Science Working Group – Strengthen conservation social science and its application to conservation practice

👋 Hello BlueSky! I’m Dr Stephanie Brittain, a Lecturer in Conservation Science at @dice-kent.bsky.social & a Research Fellow @iccs.bsky.social @ox.ac.uk.

I’m also President of the SCB SSWG (Social Science Working Group) @society4conbio.bsky.social scbsocialscience.org #ConSocSci

Volunteers are crucial for conservation work but there is a risk of burnout amongst them. @angelasocsci.bsky.social & Tracy Schultz identified the factors associated with greater risk of volunteers leaving & give great recommendations to keep these wonderful people engaged!

Such valuable discussions on the challenges of creating guidelines for all species & contexts! Thanks all! See how we've translated research into practice with our wildlife image guidelines: zoo.org.au/training/animal-welfare

#ICCB2025 #ConSocSci

Kicked off #ICCB2025 with our forum on social media guidelines for conservation. Big thanks to Emily McLeod & Doug Gimesy for sparking thoughtful discussion. Key Qs: Could your post cause harm? If it needs a caption to justify it—should you post it? #ConservationMarketing #ConSocSci

Special Issue: Trends and Future Directions in the Conservation Social Sciences: Conservation Biology: Vol 39, No 2 <em>Conservation Biology</em> is the leading global journal in the field of conservation, publishing groundbreaking papers contributing to the conservation of biological diversity.

Great to see this Special Issue on "Trends and Future Directions in the Conservation Social Sciences" in @conbiology.bsky.social #ConSocSci #MarSocSci

The field has come a long way, and there is still room for growth:

I like this idea. I’m in. So what might be some compelling “frames” for #ConSocSci?
E.g., “Ending federal funding will end government insight into the local needs of rural & resource-based communities”…?
Think I need help! Ideas? Advice? @katestarbird.bsky.social what makes a good “frame”??

Just delivered a guest lecture for an undergraduate natural resource conflict management course on decision-making under conditions of uncertainty, conflict, and urgency — always an important topic, but now more than ever 🌊 #ConSocSci #MarSocSci #EnvSocSci #PhD
