SAPECS Winter School turns up the heat in the Garden Route
Surrounded by the beautiful Outeniqua Mountains and situated within deeply green pine plantations, the NMMU campus at Saasveld provided a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life for 21 students from all over southern Africa.

Introductory reading: Applying Resilience Thinking
A new popular science publication has been produced by the Stockholm Resilience Centre, entitled "Applying resilience thinking - Seven principles for building resilience in social-ecological systems". This is a popular summary of the Cambridge University book "Principles for Building Resilience: Sustaining Ecosystem Services in Social-Ecological Systems" (2014). This book, in turn, expands on the comprehensive review "Towards principles for enhancing the resilience of ecosystem services" by Reinette Biggs et al., published in the journal Annual Reviews of Environment and Resources in 2012. Many SAPECS-affiliated researchers were involved in the process [...]

Project update: It’s less about elephants, and more about space…
To compete for a burgeoning tourist market looking for a great wildlife experience, protected areas (particularly more commercially driven privately-owned ones) often over-stock on charismatic species. But do more charismatic species equate to more visitors, and more revenue? In a paper recently published in the journal Ecological Applications, and featured more popularly in the magazine “Conservation”, Kristi Maciejewski and Graeme Kerley from the SAPECS-affiliated Protected Areas Project find that this is not necessarily the case. In their study, carried out in the Eastern Cape, higher elephant densities did not translate to increased [...]
SAPECS Working Groups Workshop held in Grahamstown
A very hot and humid Grahamstown welcomed more than twenty researchers and PhD students to the 4th meeting of the SAPECS Working Groups between 27th and 30th January 2014, held at Rhodes University.

Three full days of workshopping were complemented with a fieldtrip to Grahamstown’s commonages, which represent fascinating examples of social-ecological systems that provide a variety of [...]
