Conference Report Gibraltar hosted an international environmental conference "Sustaining Partnerships" from 11th to 15th July 2015, with a focus on UK Overseas Territories, Crown Dependencies and other small islands. This was organised by UK Overseas Territories Conservation Forum and HM Government of Gibraltar’s Department of the Environment and Climate Change, with the support of Gibraltar Ornithological & Natural History Society. The conference provided a forum for government environmental bodies, NGOs and commercial organisations to discuss key conservation issues, to highlight success stories, exchange ideas, and to forge partnerships. It is hoped that Overseas Territories, Crown Dependencies and other small island communities that share similar environmental problems will benefit from learning about one another’s history and experience of planning and conservation initiatives.
