Discover the Future of Wildlife Recording at the University of Exeter’s Exciting Event

Calling all wildlife enthusiasts! Whether you are just dipping your toes into the world of wildlife recording or you are a seasoned pro, the upcoming event at the University of Exeter’s Penryn Campus is a must-attend.

Scheduled to engage a diverse group of nature recorders, this gathering promises a day full of learning, networking, and in-depth discussions on the evolving practices in wildlife documentation.

A Day of Insight and Interaction

Hosted by the Environmental Records Centre for Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly (ERCCIS), and in partnership with the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Federation for Biological Recorders (CiSFBR), this special event is set to take place on the scenic Penryn Campus of the University of Exeter. Attendees will have the unique opportunity to participate in workshops, listen to expert speakers, and engage in important discussions about both terrestrial and marine wildlife in Cornwall.

What’s on the Agenda?

This year’s focus, “Trends in Wildlife Recording,” aims to explore the significant shifts in how environmental data is collected and analysed. Participants will delve into the rise of structured monitoring techniques and how they stack up against traditional methods, which have stood the test of time.

Among the notable contributors are Chelonia Ltd, the Cornwall Mammal Group, and the University of Exeter. These speakers are gearing up to share their insights through a series of talks designed to enlighten and inspire all who attend.

Catering to All

Ensuring a fully inclusive experience, the event organisers have confirmed that a variety of dietary preferences will be catered for, with lunch and refreshments provided. Options will include meat, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free choices, allowing everyone to enjoy the day without hassle.
