We had the great pleasure in hearing about the work of Dr Kylie Soanes who is an urban ecologist at the University of Melbourne in the School of Ecosystem and Forest Sciences.
She investigates creative and practical ways to conserve biodiversity in cities and towns, working with industry and government to develop a strong evidence base for urban conservation.
She speaks about her recent research on the state of urban biodiversity conservation in Australia, and details some current projects underway in Melbourne.
Well worth a listen!
