Healthy and thriving animal communities depend on healthy and thriving human communities. That’s the message from this week’s guest, Dr. Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka, Uganda’s first wildlife veterinarian and founder of Conservation Through Public Health. Highlights include:
- How a scabies outbreak among gorillas reshaped her approach to conservation, linking human health to the health of the gorillas;
- The role of family planning and community health education in reducing human population pressure, human-wildlife conflict and improving both conservation outcomes and local livelihoods;
- The balance between the benefits of ecotourism for funding conservation and the risks it poses to gorilla health;
- How Gorilla Conservation Coffee provides alternative livelihoods for farmers while supporting endangered gorillas and their habitats.
