Seeing the System: Mapping Hidden Impacts in Biodiversity Loss Facilitator: Dr. Jessica Lee Using biodiversity loss as an entry point, this workshop moves beyond species-level thinking into systems. Participants trace the ripple effects of ecological change — across communities, economies, and cultural practices. What happens in the room: Map a real biodiversity case (e.g. bird population decline) Identify second- and third-order impacts Surface blind spots in conservation thinking Takeaway: A systems lens that connects ecological change to human and cultural consequences — not just environmental outcomes.
