ECOS: A Review of Conservation, published by the British Association of Nature Conservationists, provides leading edge comment on policies and debates and challenges in nature conservation. The journal is widely read by people involved in conservation across Britain. This is your chance to influence them and build your profile as you begin your career.
All submitted articles will be included on a register on the ECOS-BANC website. This archive will be maintained and will hold all entries that pass the judges’ standard. Six commended articles will be published in a special edition of ECOS in September 2017. Alongside this, all submitted articles which our editorial team feel have something valuable to say about conservation will be published on BANC’s website.
