Oiled Wildlife Response for Decision Makers: An Incident Management Perspective

  • OSRL

Designed to equip you with essential skills and provide a holistic perspective on wildlife response, positioning it as a crucial element intertwined with the broader oil spill response framework.

Discover a comprehensive understanding of Wildlife Response within the context of oil spill incidents through this course developed alongside Wildbase at Massey University.

Our primary goal is to bridge the gap between Wildlife Planning and Response Strategies, integrating them seamlessly into the overall response effort. By emphasising the interconnectedness of Wildlife Response with the entirety of the response process, you will gain a more nuanced and effective approach to handling oil spill incidents.

Tailored for operators in countries where awareness and regulatory frameworks for wildlife response are either nascent or in the early stages of development, this course offers invaluable insights and practical knowledge.

Join us on this journey to enhance your capabilities and contribute to the comprehensive management of oil spill incidents in your region.
