Centre for Sustainability Transitions

We had the privilege of hosting members of the Morally Contested Conservation group hosted at University of Oxford. The Centre for Sustainability Transitions' researcher, Dr Hayley Clements, spoke to BETTY RONO, who is a member of the group and a PhD candidate at Rhodes University, about her research on nature's contribution to people. If this is a topic that interests you, please take a listen to the conversation that also touches on people's contribution to nature.
