Funded Activity Summary
Transcending language barriers to environmental sciences. This project aims to enhance the global flow of scientific knowledge for biodiversity conservation by tackling the impediment of language barriers. The project draws from literature reviews, modelling and global surveys to shed light on details of biodiversity science published in non-English languages, and how language impedes the use of biodiversity science in decision-making. The project will produce a database and search system for non-English conservation studies and recognise the importance of translations to better inform policies and practices. This will benefit national and international environmental sciences and policies by increasing knowledge available for synthesis and facilitating science-led conservation.Funded Activity Details
