The Green Report: The future of conservation


In this episode, Rappler environment editor Jee Geronimo and reporter Iya Gozum talk to Neil Aldrin Mallari, chief scientist at the Center for Conservation Innovations Philippines

MANILA, Philippines – Conservation is as much about the people as it is about the planet.

In the past, conservationists used a “fines and fences” approach to protecting biodiversity, excluding local communities in the process. Now, there’s a shift to a new approach that takes into account indigenous and local wisdom as a critical part of conservation work.

In this episode of The Green Report, Rappler environment editor Jee Geronimo and reporter Iya Gozum talk to Neil Aldrin Mallari, chief scientist at the Center for Conservation Innovations Philippines. Mallari shares his experience working with communities and the many ways he continues to learn from them.
