We are hosting our first EarthRanger Workshop 26-30 October at Lapalala Wilderness School in the Waterberg region, South Africa.

Field teams across southern Africa are collecting more conservation data than ever before. But data volume alone doesn't create impact, and too often, the gap between what's collected in the field and what informs a management decision remains wide open.

This workshop is built specifically for data leads and protected area managers, the people actively responsible for turning field data into strategic decisions, donor reports, and meaningful conservation outcomes.

Across three days, we will work through the adaptive management cycle, from field data capture through to analysis, reporting and strategic decision-making. We will cover system integrations (including EarthRanger, CMORE, SMART and Ecoscope) and how to align your data systems with MEL frameworks, supported by case studies and good practice from sites across the region. The final day goes deeper on technical skills for data leads and EarthRanger administrators, covering advanced functionalities like analyzers and alerts, customised event types and permission settings.

Participants will leave with:
→ Advanced ER Admin skills; analyzer and alerts
→ EcoScope workflows to extract relevant ER data
→ Integration know-how between EarthRanger and CMORE
→ Insight into aligning data systems with MEL frameworks
→ Understanding of the SERCA roadmap and things to come

Send a DM to Resolve Wildlife if you're interested in attending.
