Civet Working Group Members Call

Jul 23, 2025
2 min read

As part of our capacity building efforts, the Civet Working Group seeks to recruit more range country members.  


The Civet Working Group is hosted by the IUCN SSC Small Carnivore Specialist Group in partnership with The Civet Project Foundation. The working group's mission is to enhance scientific understanding of Viverrid species and to promote human-viverrid coexistence.


Inclusivity, diversity and collaboration are fundamental values of the Civet Working Group and these values feed into all that we do. Each of our three sub-groups (‘Education for Human-Viverrid Coexistence’ ; ‘Taxonomy & Red Listings’ ;  ‘Mapping & Distribution’) operate in such a way as to involve and benefit people who live alongside, interact with, or come into conflict with viverrid species.

​

Overall, our work seeks to include the perspectives of interest-holders within civet range countries. To strengthen our capacity in this area, we are seeking to appoint additional range country members to the Civet Working Group.


Our current focuses include, but are not limited to:

  • Red Listing assessments for common palm civet (splitting into 3 species) and common genet (splitting into 2 species).

  • Prioritising re-assessments for Data Deficient and Near Threatened viverrid species.

  • Developing a global education campaign for World Civet Day under the thematic banner of ‘One Health, One Welfare, Once Community’

  • Supporting early career conservationists to conduct research projects using our Night Roamers iNaturalist database.


As much of our current focus is on red listings, we are keen to work with members with local knowledge of species threats who are in tune with the situation in their region (e.g. regional mammal declines). Whilst no actions are imminent, we are also very interested to work with members from India so that we can best understand the cultural contexts surrounding the Malabar civet.


If you are from a viverrid range country and would like to join our working group please email . Dr Jes Hooper: jes@thecivetproject.com. Group related queries to be directed to the same email address.

Do not confuse this scheme with <a href="https://mpvimarshportal.co.in/">MP Vimarsh Portal</a> other programs that use the name “Annapurna,” such as Rajasthan’s Annapurna Rasoi. This article is only about the West Bengal scheme.

Mình có lần lướt đọc mấy trao đổi trên mạng شيخ روحاني thì thấy nhắc nên cũng tò mò mở ra xem thử cho biết. Mình không tìm hiểu sâu جلب الحبيب chỉ xem qua trong thời gian ngắn để quan sát bố cục جلب الحبيب cách sắp xếp شيخ روحاني các mục và trình bày nội شيخ روحاني dung tổng thể. Cảm giác là các phần được trình bày khá gọn, các Huren Berlin mục rõ ràng nên đọc lướt cũng không bị rối với mình như Hurentest Berlin vậy là đủ để nắm tin cơ bản rồi. جلب الحبيب

A good explanation of cricket online id should probably cover the basics in an organized way. Start with what the ID means, then explain registration, verification, account security, and any relevant transaction rules. If the account is used for betting, the article should also discuss age restrictions, legal availability, and responsible gambling. Without those details, readers may understand how to create an account but still have no idea what conditions apply once the account is active.
