Three 12-minute talks followed by a 3-minute question period. 

This session explores the shared and unique challenges faced by leaders working in the field of conservation throughout the Caribbean. Participants will discuss how island-specific factors, including ecological, social, and cultural contexts, influence conservation efforts. By comparing experiences, we aim to foster a deeper understanding of how geographical and institutional settings shape conservation strategies and collaboration opportunities.

Where do we go from here? Reflect on key takeaways and explore the future direction of the organization. Discuss goals such as creating an expert directory, developing a data repository, forming working groups, and publishing conference proceedings to strengthen collaboration and impact.
