Pew’s land conservation work spans the United States, Canada, Chile, and Australia and seeks to safeguard public land for future generations. Our work relies on the sciences of conservation, biology, and ecology to advocate for sound solutions to the loss of biodiversity.

Each new year presents a chance to explore potential challenges and emerging opportunities that could redefine biodiversity conservation. Recently, I worked with a team of 32 international scientists and practitioners to conduct a horizon scan, a collaborative process designed to raise awareness of emerging risks and advances in conservation. After consulting more than 600 experts from a wide range of geographies and institutions, we identified the 15 most significant and novel issues likely to shape environmental conservation over the next decade.
