Dr Jacob Phelps will be contributing to an upcoming, free online course, coordinated by Indonesia's Institut Teknologi Bandung. Indonesia is one of the world’s most biodiverse countries. However, it is under unprecedented development pressures. This online, global course will explore the challenges and opportunities associated with conservation in Indonesia. It will include a virtual tour, a workshop on natural history illustration, and talks by Indonesian and international lecturers, NGOs, and government parties. Jacob is leading one of the sessions, looking at the challenges of tackling illegal wildlife trade, and presenting how legal strategies proposed by WILDS could help to address these threats.
