What is CAP-SHARE?


The increasing disconnection among communities, scientists, and policymakers poses significant challenges to biodiversity conservation and climate change mitigation. It is vital to bridge these gaps, particularly in rural communities where residents face pressing concerns about environmental degradation, climate change impacts, limited opportunities, and feelings of under-representation.


CAP-SHARE aims to develop a model for effective capacity sharing for biodiversity preservation and climate resilience by promoting cooperation between communities, scientists, and policymakers. Activities, such as public online and in-person workshops in collaboration with local museums, and an international youth science symposium, will focus on building solutions based on the following themes:

  • Co-creating bridges between communities, policymakers, and scientists
  • Recognizing intergenerational, local and indigenous knowledge
  • Involving youth in place-based actions from conception to policy
