Welcome fellow travellers!

Your hosts Jamie and Skander talk with Thomas Worsdell, an independent researcher currently working with the Rights and Resources Initiative (RRI) and the Asia Indigenous Peoples Pact (AIPP). A lot of Thomas' work revolves around land, people and the complex interactions between the two.

We learned a lot throughout the episode from Thomas about rights-based conservation tactics, the perilous strategies from that often threaten the culture and livelihood of indigenous peoples and what we can do to make sure saving the planet doesn't come at the cost of hurting vulnerable groups. Our conversation touches on everything from the Seychelles to Britain, and features a shocking outcome to our animal guessing game!
