ADVANCED COURSE:
Integrating transport and energy infrastructures and wildlife conservation: Planning, Monitoring, and Mitigation Strategies
February 12-14, 2025 | Face-to-face
This course explores the dynamic intersection of infrastructure development and wildlife conservation. Students will learn to balance transport and energy infrastructure development needs with ecological preservation through strategic planning, effective monitoring, and innovative mitigation techniques. Compensation measures will also be discussed. The curriculum covers the environmental impacts of onshore infrastructure (roads, railways, powerlines, wind farms, and solar photovoltaic plants), wildlife habitat requirements, and the application of technology in monitoring and mitigating negative effects. By integrating theoretical knowledge with practical skills, this course aims to prepare students for careers in environmental planning, conservation, and sustainable development, as well as to foster future research on this topic.
