This project aims to enhance the global flow of scientific knowledge for biodiversity conservation by tackling the impediment of language barriers. The project draws from literature reviews, modelling and global surveys to shed light on details of biodiversity science published in non-English languages, and how language impedes the use of biodiversity science in decision-making. The project will produce a database and search system for non-English conservation studies and recognise the importance of translations to better inform policies and practices. This will benefit national and international environmental sciences and policies by increasing knowledge available for synthesis and facilitating science-led conservation.

该项目旨在通过克服语言障碍，加强生物多样性保护科学知识的全球流动。该项目利用文献综述、建模和全球调查，阐明以非英语出版的生物多样性科学的细节，以及语言如何阻碍生物多样性科学在决策中的使用。该项目将为非英语保护研究建立一个数据库和搜索系统，并认识到翻译的重要性，以更好地为政策和实践提供信息。这将有利于国家和国际环境科学和政策，增加可用于综合的知识，促进科学主导的保护。
