UNEARTHODOX LEARNING FESTIVAL 2023
The Future of Conservation

A month of exploration, celebration and forward-thinking! 

The Unearthodox Learning Festival, held throughout October 2023, showcased Unearthodox's three featured projects: The Future of Conservation NGOs, Digital Disruption and the Future of Conservation, and  The Future of Philanthropy for Biodiversity

Through a series of webinars, panel discussions, and publications, the Festival connected the different initiatives to provide a holistic overview of possible futures for conservation practices.

It provided a forum for networking and collaboration, where participants engaged with sector peers, defined practical steps, and nurtured innovative ideas.

The Festival included five online learning events.

Events

1. Challenging 
the Conservation 
Status-Quo

In this session we explored how philanthropy impacts biodiversity conservation and how it can rebalance its power structures to become more inclusive and generate better outcomes for nature and people.

In this session we delved into practical aspects of diversity, equity and inclusivity. Together we uncovered actionable ideas: How can we operationalise diversity and inclusivity within conservation NGOs? What policies and approaches are needed? What do we need to do differently?
