Natalia new here
Hello WildHub community!
My name is Natalia Rozniewska. I'm veterinarian from Poland, currently studying a postgraduate master course in Conservation Medicine at the University of Edinburgh and working in France.
I'm passionate about wildlife health and biodiversity conservation. I've worked for Antillean Manatee Reintroduction Project in Guadeloupe. I am also managing the association Capture and Release: Capture Images, Release Species. We are helping wildlife reintroduction projects with awareness-raising and education by creation of quality audio-visual content that engages the audience and raises emotions through storytelling. We do documentary films, short videos, photography, music composition, voice off. Furthermore, we do veterinary scientific research and disease risk analysis.
You can learn more about our association here www.captureandrelease.org
I look forward to exchange and learn from you!

Welcome to WildHub, Natalia!
A warm welcome to WildHub, Natalia! I look forward to learning from your expertise, especially regarding your lessons learned whilst working on the Antillean Manatee Reintroduction Project in Guadeloupe. Would you be able to share these lessons learned with the WildHub community perhaps? Please also see our Contributor guidelines here for tips :)
Hello Thirza! I would be very happy to share the lessons from the project, but I will struggle to put them in 1500 words ;) It was an exceptional experience to work for this project for 4 years, but also very frustrating to see it being stopped because of a lack of political support and internal conflicts of the leading organisation. With the association we are now working on a documentary film MANMAN-DLO ("manatee" in Creole) in order to raise awareness and to give this project a second chance.
You can already see a teaser presenting the project: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rizQzFLfzE&t=19s
Please let me know where and how I could best contribute to the WildHub community!
Hi Natalia, thanks for your positive response and love the teaser! Perhaps we can team you up with one of our Conservation Catalysts who would then interview you about your lessons learned? This interview can then be published as a video, or, alternatively, as a 1500 word blog post, which one of our Catalyst will write up for you :) Of course it will only be shared with the community after you have approved it. Does that sound like something that you would be interested in?
@Marrian Tendai Rwizi and @Taranee : would either of you perhaps have time to connect with Natalia and help her to publish her lessons learned? @Lara Reden : would you be available to support the process (e.g. review), if needed? Many thanks, Catalyst team!
I'd be happy to review the piece before it's published.
