In September 2023, our Taskforce was featured in the Oryx - The International Journal of Conservation News, under the title "IUCN launches Task Force on Behaviour Change.”, as a cross-commission Task Force within the SSC (Species Survival Commission) and CEC (Commission of Education and Communication).
The objective of this publication was to highlight the importance that a group with these characteristics and professional experience within the social sciences can assume in the context of nature conservation.
