Hej,
SLU's research school ECOS (Ecology and Society), in collaboration with the Nsasani Trust in South Africa, are offering an exciting PhD course on "Global Perspectives on Adaptive Wildlife Management". This course aims to bring together students from European and South African universities to jointly analyze and contrast global wildlife management challenges, and learn about how the adaptive management framework can be used to manage these challenges.
It is a highly interdisciplinary course covering broad fields such as political science and ecology, and students will be interacting with a diverse group of European and South African scientists and wildlife managers. The core part of the course is a 16-day field trip to the Nsasani trust's educational campus in Kruger National Park, South Africa.
Application deadline is 1 September 2018. Make sure to not miss this deadline because the number of student spots in this course is limited. Please note there is no course fee.
More information can be found on attached flyer and on www.slu.se/ecos-courses
Best wishes from the core course organizing team,
