Dear WildHub Community!

I would like to send you my very best wishes for the New Year! May 2025 bring you energising connections, impactful collaborations, and moments of inspiration that drive your incredible work forward.

As we step into this new year, I’d love to hear how your holiday season has refreshed your energy and provided time to reflect. What personal or professional goals are you excited to pursue in 2025? Are there any bold steps (or jumps!) and transformative changes you’re planning that align with your conservation journey?

Reflecting on our own journey, 2024 was a landmark year for the WildHub community as we surpassed 5,000 members across 163 countries. This milestone reminds us of the strength and diversity of our global community, united by a shared passion for conservation.

Would you like to take up the challenge and expand our member base in countries where we have no members yet? See the grey parts of our brand-new member map below!

Invite other professionals to WildHub members by using our "invite button" on our homepage (more instructions about inviting people to WildHub can be found here). 

Looking ahead, our vision for 2025 is equally ambitious. A key focus will be implementing the WildHub Partnership model, which involves establishing Global Community Manager roles within partner organisations. These managers will play a vital role in leading and growing our community, ensuring we continue to connect and empower conservation professionals worldwide.

We’re currently submitting funding applications to make this vision a reality. If you’d like to learn more about what we’re looking for in partner organisations, please visit our website.

But this is just one step in our journey. Your ideas and insights are crucial as we chart the path ahead. What transformative strides do you think WildHub can take in 2025 to better support you and the global conservation community? No idea is too big or too small—we value your thoughts and suggestions as always.

Together, let’s embody our motto: One world, one team. 🌍

Here’s to another year of learning, collaboration, and impact. I can’t wait to see what we achieve together!

Best wishes,

Thirza

One world, one team" (Our WildHub Community's motto)
