This talk is one of a series which give a unique insight a major conservation project in the Dominican Republic.
The Island of Hispaniola is shared by two neighbouring countries, Haiti and the Dominican Republic. Neighbours they may be but in many ways they are worlds apart in terms of culture, development and the state of their environment. Haiti is hailed as an example of what can happen if overexploitation is left unchecked while the Dominican Republic has nearly 30% if its land within protected areas. Regardless of many of the differences that will be raised during the talk, the future of both countries is intricately tied together. The three main questions will be addressed from the conservation perspective: What events have led to the present environmental state of Hispaniola? What is the state of play today? And what future challenges and solutions are there?
