Intro to Community Ecology: Notable species, priority habitats and landscape designations

Join us on the first of 4 deep dive sessions to learn about the fundamental concepts of ecology - applicable in your own green space, whether it be a garden you want to cater to wildlife, a community group you’re part of looking to support a bigger green space, or whether you’re interested to understand wildlife in a more formal capacity. In this first webinar, we will be looking at the foundation of species and habitat protection; what are notable species? What makes a priority habitat? Why are some species internationally protected and how do landscape designations, such as SNCI'S (Sites of Nature Conservation Interest) and SSSI's (Sites of Special Scientific Interest), function to protect wildlife? Together we will look at: · Key websites that list species of conservation concern and landscape designations around your area. · Different ways species and habitats are protected. · Site designations in the UK ranging from Local Wildlife Sites all the way up to Internationally protected RAMSAR sites, helping you to understand how these protections function to protect vital landscapes.
