Public lecture by Dr. Laurie Marker, founder of The Cheetah Conservation Fund

Ever wondered what goes into saving an endangered species? Dr. Laurie Marker, founder of The Cheetah Conservation Fund, has been working with cheetahs in Namibia for decades. In the race for survival, she has had to work with various stakeholders and use innovative strategies such as genetic research, re-wilding programs, livestock guardian dogs, and social entrepreneurship. The Cheetah Conservation Fund operates from the principle that only by securing the future of the communities that live alongside the cheetah can you secure a future for the cheetah.
