Abstract
Practising conservation requires the continuous management of locations (and, in particular, of people and wildlife). The theme of location draws attention to multiple indigenous people, species, and experiences, thereby helping to expose the different interests at stake in national conservation plans. Yet, practising conservation, especially at the international level, is desirable to address complex sustainability problems, even though framing international conservation plans often triggers (1) concerns about the domination of the vulnerable by the powerful and (2) a call for decolonial conservation plans. In this article, I engage decolonial thought and situate it within Ubuntu's lens of relationality and location. Situating conservation problems at the intersection of decolonial and ubuntu lenses helps offer solutions to global conservation problems.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
