At the Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology, our innovative and cutting edge research develops the science that underpins conservation and tackles the more applied questions of how biodiversity can survive in this ever more crowded world. This work focuses on a range of issues covering biodiversity and human well-being, deforestation, defaunation and restoration, designing conservation area and ecological networks, human-wildlife coexistence, landscapes and livelihoods, species monitoring and conservation, valuing nature and ecosystem services, and wildlife trade and sustainable use.
