Initiated by WildHub member Paul Thung who works as Social Science Advisor on Community-Led Governance at Planet Indonesia. We will meet every month on the second Thursday of the month. Times can vary depending on where we are in the world, so please get in touch with us (hello@wildhub.community) if you would like to meet at different time. 

What can you expect? 

We will start with general introductions and then move on to discuss the reading. 

  • At any time, add things you’d like to read to the longlist (link here)
  • At agreed-on moments, everyone nominates one reading to the shortlist (link here)
  • We vote and read whatever gets the most votes

Paul: "What I would like about this process is that it would also result in a list of interesting readings on topics we care about. But I'm very much open to other ideas!"

This reading group has been created as a safe and inclusive space for everyone. Therefore, if you have any particular requirements, are nervous about joining, or have any ideas for future socials please do get in touch at hello@wildhub.community

Reminder: The gather space is open 24/7 so feel free to check it out and use it outside of these events! - follow the link on this event to login. For the best user experience we recommend opening the Gather space link on your desktop/laptop using Google Chrome. 

See you there!

My background is mainly in species conservation, education and capacity development. I researched mother-young interactions in gorillas and chimpanzees, in captivity and the wild. After that, I worked for three years in Indonesia, where I developed and implemented youth ambassador and community engagement programmes on local and regional scales. I work as Community Manager at WildHub since 2020, and I am an Associate Member of the Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology (DICE) at the University of Kent where I obtained my PhD on capacity development for conservation in 2022.
