envecon 2022 session: working in a multidisciplinary world
In our first major announcement on the content of envecon 2022, we are pleased to reveal this session led jointly by UKNEE and the British Ecological Society.
The session will provide participants with a toolkit of interdisciplinary skills, aimed particularly at collaborations between economists and ecologists, and research users and research creators. We will cover topics such as building a team, designing a project, and communication across disciplines.
If you would like to organise a session at envecon 2022 (online, on 18 March), please reach out to us with your proposal at uknee@uknee.org.
Connecting Economics and Ecology: the Applied Ecology Resources open platform
The British Ecological Society have developed the Applied Ecology Resources (AER) open platform. AER is a novel, globally accessible resource which makes sharing and discovering information on the management of biodiversity and the environment easier for everyone – whether you work in research, policy, or practice.
All content on AER is freely accessible and the available knowledge base has been continuously growing since the platform launched in April 2021. Explore the platform using its custom search tool to discover knowledge shared by NGOs, government agencies, researchers, and other practical ecologists from across the globe, or you can jump straight in and browse the environmental economics content.
At the heart of AER is the peer-reviewed open access journal Ecological Solutions and Evidence, which publishes articles that promote open science and enables practitioners to communicate their knowledge from experience to a wider audience.
AER is supported by organisation membership. Discover the benefits of AER membership for your organisation.
