The Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem is recognized as a standard for dealing with issues of large landscape conservation. Parallels are often drawn between Greater Yellowstone and other areas around the globe, including sub-regions of southern Africa. In this presentation, two Namibia-based conservationists, Dr. Margaret Jacobsohn and Garth Owen-Smith, describe their cutting edge work in community-based conservation. Jacobsohn and Owen-Smith are past recipients of the prestigious Goldman Prize, and are introduced by a brief video produced by the Goldman Environmental Foundation. You can learn more about them and their work in this Mountain Journal article.
