Compassionate Conservation & Biogeography

 

 Bringing individuals into conservation practice.

PUBLICATIONS

 

We publish in many different styles of journals and books, encompassing wildlife ecology, animal behaviour, compassionate conservation, animal welfare, ecological modelling, remote sensing and GIS, and biogeography.

PROJECTS

 

We work on many different taxa of wildlife and plants, and combine field work, lab work, and computer work to test ecological and evolutionary theory and develop practical outcomes for conservation that are consistent with being compassionate.

STUDENTS

 

Students collaborate on a wide range of projects under our broad theme. We take on undergraduate honours students, masters students, and doctoral students. We collaborate with a number of other academics to provide expertise. Our student projects are often linked to industry partners.

Daniel Ramp
CENTRE FOR COMPASSIONATE CONSERVATION
Conservation that respects animals!

Daniel is the Director of the Centre for Compassionate Conservation @ UTS.

 

Current conservation practice needs modernising to redress the imbalance between human and non-human animal interests.

 

Established in 2013, the Centre is an innovative research, education and advisory centre. It focusses on national and international challenges involving human-wildlife conflict, wildlife trade, conservation of endangered species and their habitats, and the well-being of wild animals.

 

The growing international movement of Compassionate Conservation represents a paradigm shift by incorporating ethics and animal welfare into contemporary conservation practice to improve conservation and well-being outcomes.

 

 

CONSERVATION AND WILDLIFE ECOLOGY, UTS

Daniel is the theme leader for Conservation and Wildlife Ecology in the School of the Environment.

 

Our research encompasses high quality research and teaching that targets greater understanding of wildlife and practical applications for their conservation.

 

Our vision is science that informs conservation initiatives aimed at understanding, mitigating, and adapting to environmental change, driven particularly by human population growth, human disturbance, and climate change.

 

Our collective approach is to find new solutions to intractable environmental problems through clever science and stakeholder engagement.​
