What are the ‘social dimensions’ of moving species for conservation and why does engaging with them matter?

Need a little fun as we near Christmas? Here's something for you! We had a heap of fun writing about place names and kākā - cheeky #NZ parrots - and it's out. The work evolved over 2 summers, led by (then) undergraduate student Fin Johnson (on the right). 1/n

Just so we're clear, aside from the social sciences and humanities, this description excludes:
- agricultural, vetinary, and food sciences
- earth sciences
- environmental sciences
- information and computing sciences
- ALL non-biomedical biological sciences
- agricultural, vetinary, and food sciences

It turns out that JC's definition of science is even narrower than it appears. Biological sciences have been reduced to biomedical applications only.
Presumably this is rushed by people who have no idea what they're talking about (i.e. JC didn't pay enough attention on school)
Incompetence reigns!

With or without the media: Palestinian exclusion and response in Aotearoa
