Tipping into positive change

In honor of renowned conservation biologist Thomas Lovejoy, the Kathryn S. Fuller Science for Nature Symposium will be re-named the Thomas Lovejoy Science for Nature Symposium. For the last 17 years, our Science for Nature symposia have brought together extraordinary global thinkers and leaders in science, policy, and conservation to discuss groundbreaking conservation science research and how to put it into practice. Throughout his career, Tom Lovejoy was one of those extraordinary thinkers and leaders. To acknowledge his remarkable contributions to science and nature and over 50 years of working in the Amazon, the first Lovejoy Science for Nature Symposium will discuss the resilience of the Amazon and solutions for nature and people.
