Authors for Conservation Evidence, University of Cambridge

In 2014, we wrote the ‘Bat Conservation Synopsis’ for the Conservation Evidence project at the University of Cambridge. This book forms part of the ‘Synopses of Conservation Evidence’ series designed to promote an evidence-based approach to biodiversity conservation. The synopsis brings together and summarises scientific evidence relevant to the practical conservation of bats. We worked with an international group of bat experts to develop a global list of interventions that could benefit bats, and then searched the global literature for evidence, which we summarised in an accessible format.

We have since completed three annual updates of the Bat Conservation Synopsis in 2019, 2020 and 2021 to include the latest scientific evidence. Read or download the latest Bat Conservation Synopsis here.

Anna continues to work as an author for Conservation Evidence, and was recently involved in the production of Synopses for Marine and Freshwater Mammal Conservation, Grassland Conservation, Eel Conservation in Inland Habitats and Kelp Conservation.
