Hello everyone!

I'm Mory, a water and Environmental engineer currently working in a junior mining corporation in Mali (West Africa) as an environmental officer.  As part of my job (that i love), it's my duty to contribute to the protection and conservation of wildlife. Morever, mining has a huge impact on biodiversity depletion. 

As part of our job, my team and i use to relocate animals (Snakes most of the time) and insects (Bees and their hives) that one may encounter on the mine site.

Since, i haven't a real expertise in the sector i have been looking for courses to deepen my knowledge in conservation of wildlife and i was really lucky to find a course by WildTeam on LinkedIn to which i've registered. 

From their website, i was able to find the link to the community website. 

I would like to take advantage of this to thank all you and i'm really looking forward to learn as much as possible and apply that knowledge.

I am a professor at the State University of Santa Cruz - Bahia - Brazil. As a veterinarian I work in the health context and lately I have admired the area of Unique Health, Ecosystem Health and Conservation Medicine. I am currently involved in research related to zoonotic diseases, including arboviruses, and also research in the area of animal welfare, biosafety and anesthesiology.
In 2018, we founded the Wild Animal Care and Research Center (NAPAS), linked to the Veterinary Hospital of the University. In this space we are responsible for improving and maintaining the health status of wild animals in the southern region of the state of Bahia. We have a team made up of undergraduate and graduate students, in addition to specialists from the most varied areas of Veterinary Medicine.

My work mostly entails youth-led environmental conservation, landscape and nature restoration, marine protection, climate-smart farming systems, environmental policy, and environmental journalism. I also have a deep interest in working with youth at the grassroots level, youth-inclusive governance and policies, environmental storytelling, and climate action. I am a climate advocate and an environmental defender, working to champion meaningful youth engagement for Climate action with a background in Environmental Studies and Community Development.

Currently, I am a Co_founder and Projects Officer at Train My Generation CBO ( TMG) and my work involves planning and managing impact projects at the organization. At TMG, we believe that sharing images will enable the world to understand why and how they will need to conserve the environment and make sustainable decisions while going about their daily lives. We share stories that enable relevant sharing of knowledge on everything nature and wildlife. We create awareness of conservation and climate change issues through photography. 

 I have previously worked as a Volunteer at Kenya Environmental Action Network (KEAN) where I have been involved in global campaigns on environmental storytelling. I was able to lead campaigns using storytelling to communicate about environmental issues and how all stakeholders can participate in achieving the goals of environmental sustainability.

Hello there , my name is Rihem , and I'm excited to share my journey and passion for wildlife conservation, particularly in the context of rural communities and social and solidarity economy.

My fascination with the natural world has been a guiding force in my life. From the lush forests to the vibrant wildlife, I've always been captivated by the beauty and complexity of our planet's ecosystems. This love for nature naturally led me to explore ways to protect and preserve it.

One of the pivotal experiences that shaped my path was my involvement with Pure Nature, where I had the privilege of working closely with rural women. In this role, I applied my management skills to engage with these incredible women, sharing knowledge and fostering a deep sense of connection with the environment. Together, we embarked on conservation initiatives that not only empowered these women but also contributed to the sustainable management of our natural resources. It was a profoundly rewarding experience that reinforced my commitment to making a difference in my community and my lovely country Tunisia .

My journey into the field of M&E is driven by a vision of combining my passion for wildlife conservation with my management skills and experience in the social and solidarity economy. I firmly believe that by integrating these elements, we can create sustainable and holistic solutions that benefit both our environment and the communities that depend on it.

I'm eager to continue this journey, collaborate with like-minded individuals, and explore opportunities to leverage my unique blend of skills and experiences. Together, we can work towards a more harmonious future where nature thrives, rural communities prosper, and social and solidarity economy principles guide our path to a better world.

Thank you for taking a moment to learn about my story and my dedication to preserving our planet's biodiversity. I look forward to connecting with fellow enthusiasts who share my vision and commitment to safeguarding our natural heritage.
