About the talk
While powerful images can captivate and inspire action, we still have much to learn about using imagery effectively for wildlife conservation. In this talk, Diogo Veríssimo, Research Fellow at the University of Oxford, will review our current understanding of how images are used to promote wildlife conservation, present recent research on which images have the most impact, and discuss the emerging challenges posed by generative AI and image manipulation.
