Namaste everyone from Nepal,

I'm Ramesh Kathariya, a wildlife student and researcher currently based in Nepal. I have a masters degree in environmental science from Tribhuvan University. The degree specialises in biodiversity conservation and wildlife management.

I have good experience in data analysis, geospatial analysis, and content creation for wildlife awareness at the community level. I have been involved at the community level as well as in policy-level (Tiger and Elephant) work for wildlife conservation in Nepal. I have mostly worked at species-level (Red Panda, Smooth-coated Otter) work, and now I want to scale up my analysis and experience at the ecosystem and landscape level.

I have been working at the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (Headquater), Kathmandu, for half of the year as a research associate. I am working on the area-based conservation approach at ICIMOD. I am seeking to enhance my knowledge and skills in data analysis and geo-spatial analysis at a larger scale, much better, I can say, the ecological modelling approaches for species as well as ecosystem assessment and conservation.

Thank you.
