Episode 10: Decolonising Conservation with Samirah Siddiqui

A conversation with conservation biologist, Samirah Siddiqui from Global Environments Network

I've been fascinated by conservation since I was very young and I was honoured to recently record this conversation with Samirah Siddiqui from Global Environments Network about her amazing work in conservation biology, her critiques on some of the colonialist aspects of the conservation industry and alternatives she has been witness to.
