News from the Australasian Section of the Society for Conservation Biology

Abstract

The Australasian section was represented at the recent Board of Governor?s meeting in Irvine, California by Karen Firestone. This meeting was focused on strategic planning for the Society as a whole over the next few years, and will provide a framework for the Society and our section to continue developing. The Australasian Board had drafted a preliminary strategic plan specifically for our section, but we need to develop further objectives, goals, and outcomes in light of the Board of Governor?s strategic planning outcomes. We would like input and assistance from the Australasian membership in forming a working committee to assist in putting together our strategic plan. If anyone is interested, please contact Karen Firestone at kfirestone@unsw.edu.au.
