Dilys Roe is a senior researcher in IIED's Natural
Resources Group and leads their work on biodiversity. Since 2004,
Dilys has coordinated the Poverty and Conservation Learning Group -
a network of organisations that is intended to improve dialogue on
poverty-conservation linkages. While the majority of Dilys' work
focusses on biodiversity-development/conservation-poverty issues,
she also has a research interest in community-based natural
resource management and community-based conservation;
ecosystem-based adaptation and high biodiversity REDD+.

Joanna Elliott is Vice President for Programme Design at
the African Wildlife Foundation and a Visiting Fellow in IIED's
Natural Resources Group. Joanna has worked extensively in the field
and at policy levels on biodiversity-development linkages, and has
led applied research programmes on land use economics, conservation
enterprise development and measuring the socio-economic impacts of
conservation.

Chris Sandbrook is a Lecturer in Conservation Leadership
at the United Nations Environment Programme World Conservation
Monitoring Centre (UNEP-WCMC). In this role he helps to run the
Masters in Conservation Leadership course at the University of
Cambridge. Chris has diverse research interests, including the
implications of market-based approaches to conservation such as
ecotourism and REDD, the relationship between great ape
conservation and poverty alleviation, and the values held by those
working in conservation.

Matt Walpole is Head of the Ecosystem Assessment
Programme at UNEP-WCMC. In this role Matt oversees a diverse
portfolio focusing on improving the uptake and use of information
on biodiversity and its values, including its role in supporting
livelihoods and poverty alleviation, amongst policymakers.
Matt's research interests include a focus on
interdisciplinary approaches to conservation research and practice
and exploring the widespread links between poverty and
conservation.
