Hello WildHub Community,
I am thrilled to join this esteemed group of conservation professionals. My name is Simon Kariuki, and I recently graduated with a diploma in Wildlife Management from the Wildlife Research and Training Institute. I am based in Kenya and actively seeking opportunities to contribute to conservation.
I joined WildHub because I am passionate about wildlife conservation and eager to connect with like-minded individuals who share this passion. I believe that being part of this community will provide me with invaluable insights and opportunities to grow personally and professionally. Currently, I am looking for any volunteer or internship opportunities within Kenya where I can sharpen and kick-start my conservational career.
As a recent graduate, I am looking forward to connecting with experienced professionals who can offer guidance and mentorship as I embark on my career. I am particularly interested in learning about innovative conservation strategies and best practices that can be applied to protect our natural heritage.
I hope to contribute to the WildHub community by sharing my enthusiasm, fresh perspectives, and any knowledge I have gained through my academic and volunteer experiences. I am excited to collaborate on projects, exchange ideas, and support the collective mission of advancing conservation efforts globally.
Thank you for welcoming me into this vibrant community. I look forward to engaging with all of you and making meaningful contributions to our shared goals.

A warm welcome to WildHub, Simon! Wonderful to have you join us and thank you for sharing about your background.
Perhaps of interest to you could be our Conservation Catalyst programme here, which can be a great experience for networking as well as sharing other people’s learnings.

Lastly, have you already met @Collins Busuru and @Ruth Jepkemoi at Kang4Nature in Kenya?
Dear Simon,
Welcome to WildHub! It’s fantastic to have you here, and congratulations on recently graduating with your diploma in Wildlife Management. Your hands-on experience with coral restoration, marine debris cleanups, and community engagement is incredibly impressive and will undoubtedly add great value to our community.
I love your enthusiasm for learning and growing within the conservation field. Are there any particular areas or species in Kenya that you are especially passionate about protecting? We’d be happy to support you in finding volunteer or internship opportunities, and I’m sure there are many members here who can offer guidance and mentorship.
We’re looking forward to seeing your contributions and are excited to collaborate with you on projects and discussions.
Thank you for the heartfelt welcome, I already fill at home. Currently I am passionate about the Felidae. My home is just next to the great Lake Nakuru National Park, and sometimes in the morning I am able to hear the lions in the park roar. I would like to start my career from there and the grow to larger mammals such as Rhinos. I will be grateful get a mentor to help me transverse this journey. I am also waiting to contribute to projects and discussions that may appear in future
