D CONSERVATION In this panel, we will discuss how revitalizing local cultural beliefs and traditional knowledge can both contribute to conserving and managing wild and domesticated species, and help strengthen cultural identity, livelihoods, and human well-being. <br>


Panelists: Jan van der Ploeg, Yasuyuki Morimoto, C. Manjula <br>

<br>

08:40 LANGUAGE, KNOWLEDGE AND THE ENVIRONMENT This panel will focus on the interconnections of language, traditional knowledge, and the environment, and on why it is vital to ensure the intergenerational transmission of cultural values, knowledge, and languages for the conservation of biocultural diversity. <br>


Panelists: Anvita Abbi, Samantha Ross, Jonathan Long <br>

<br>

09:20 INDIGENOUS PEOPLES AND PROTECTED AREAS Here we will explore how synergies can be established between the rights, needs and aspirations of Indigenous Peoples and the goals of environmental conservation, so as to ensure that the protection of biodiversity and sensitive ecosystems is compatible with cultural survival. <br>

<br>
