Mr Scott BRENNAN
Chair
Scott Brennan directs the landscape connectivity, protected areas, community conservation, science and policy work of the Yellowstone to Yukon Conservation Initiative, whose mission is to connect and protect habitat throughout the 1.4M sq/km Yellowstone to the Yukon so people and nature can thrive. He is an accomplished leader of local, regional, national and international conservation campaign teams, an award-winning educator and journalist, and a deeply committed practitioner of collaborative large landscape conservation. Scott also chairs the Large Scale Conservation Area Task Force of the 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播's World Commission on Protected Areas.
Scott brings extensive experience in campaign leadership, government relations, communications, diversity, equity and inclusion as well as ENGO leadership, management and fundraising to his work at Y2Y. Throughout his career Scott and the teams he has led have worked closely with scientists, grassroots advocates, Indigenous communities and elected officials to achieve strategic synergy between conservation and sustainable economic development.
Prior to joining Y2Y, Scott worked for The Wilderness Society for 14 years in a series of state and national leadership roles. Earlier in his career he was the founding director of the campaign to protect Bristol Bay, Alaska from the threat of large scale mining and he has also lived, worked and traveled extensively in the Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area in Southern Africa. He holds two degrees in environmental science and has taught many university-level courses in environmental science, policy and journalism.
The Large-Scale Conservation Areas Task Force is a global community of practice connecting WCPA members who are actively leading landscape, seascape and riverine conservation visions in pursuit of Target One and Target Three, as well as other targets, in specific, very large, transboundary and multi-jurisdictional efforts such as Yellowstone to Yukon (Y2Y), Kavango Zambezi (KAZA), Coral Triangle, Eastern Tropical Pacific Marine Corridor and others.
This Task Force will enable practitioners leading such efforts to:听
- connect directly with each other to share challenges, solutions, success stories, lessons learned and inspiration regarding applied, in situ, real-world very large landscape, seascape and riverine conservation efforts;
听 - identify, document and share promising, productive and emerging practices;
听 - champion the practical application of knowledge products of all WCPA thematic entities (climate, culture, equity, effectiveness, health and well being, connectivity and more) to in situ large landscape, seascape and riverine conservation contexts;
听 - develop and present a unified set of recommendations to the global funding community and other influential audiences to help ensure we achieve our 30% goal globally by 2030; and
听 - over time, build capacity and share practical knowledge and skills among efforts around the world.
The Task Force will help all of us meet the global imperative to expand protection and conservation to 30% globally by 2030 - with mosaics of formally protected areas, conserved areas and corridors by truly scaling conservation while potentially advancing other targets as听well.听 The group鈥檚 work is informed by the recognition that in addition to protected areas we need to include other forms of area-based conservation and to elevate co-existence within and beyond conserved areas.
