Description

Tropical Forest Landscape Conservation, Restoration, & Sustainable Use offers an opportunity to address pressing environmental and social challenges. Effective conservation and restoration initiatives support multiple objectives, including ecosystem functioning, climate change mitigation and adaptation, food security and economic growth.

In this yearlong program, students will learn to design, implement and monitor effective conservation and restoration initiatives. Initiatives can be projects, policies, business plans and programs at any scale.

This program builds upon the expertise of Yale F&ES faculty and ELTI’s extensive training experience and network throughout the tropics. Students will gain knowledge, practice skills and apply concepts to your own work and context.
