Description
Up to 30 museum staff will receive formal mentoring during a 15 month program during which they will design and facilitate their own planning processes to benefit their collections and the wider conservation of linked species. The mentees will collaborate to develop a tool to monitor plan implementation and results, and an online planning tools library, both of which will be made accessible to the wider U.S. ZOO and aquarium community. All mentees will receive training to be trainers themselves, which will provide capacity building support to the sector. This project will support a full time training officer who will deliver conservation planning workshop courses and manage the recruitment, delivery, and evaluation for a conservation assessment course. Project outcomes and impacts will be tracked to monitor improvements in U.S. ZOO and aquarium planning processes and the impacts they have on the stewardship of species within their care.
