Experienced in community conservation, world heritage management and ecotourism, I am an extrovert, avid traveler and photographer, easy go lucky person! 

This is Aditi Sharma and I am a Veterinarian. I completed my Masters in Veterinary Surgery & Radiology in 2004. I did a PG Diploma in Advanced Wildlife Management from the Wildlife Institute of India in 2015 & PG Diploma in One Health from COHORT, Kerela in 2023. I served the Department of Animal Husbandry in Uttarakhand State Government as Senior Veterinary Officer for 20 years and retired voluntarily on 31st January 2023 to continue as a Freelancer Wildlife Consultant. Currently, I am working on three projects related to Wildlife Health, One Health & Human-Wildlife Conflict Mitigation. I served in Rajaji Tiger Reserve in Northern India for 5 years from 2015-2020.  I am the Founder of two public charitable Trusts, one works for women's empowerment & safety and the other works for environment conservation. 

I am currently the Conservation Programmes Officer at World Land Trust (WLT), based in the UK. I started working for WLT as an assistant in 2017 and over the past few years I have taken on various responsibilities. Currently I co-ordinate and manage our restoration and ranger programmes alongside WLT supported projects in Asia and our only UK site. Prior to this I spent 7 years volunteering in a variety of different roles in organisations in the UK and abroad, whilst studying for my BTEC in Countryside Management, and BSc in Wildlife Conservation at the Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology (DICE), University of Kent. I completed a 3 month internship working as a project assistant for the Charles Darwin Foundation in the Galapagos, collecting data on the Galapagos flycatcher, before I started working at WLT. Within my current role, I engage with WLT's Partner organisations to maintain partnerships, build relationships and support their work. WLT Partners are in-country conservation organisation who manage the projects and reserves that WLT support. Key to WLT’s philosophy is to empower local organisations with financial and technical assistance but not to manage them, which is what initially drew me to working at the trust. The aquisition of land is always through project partners and WLT does not own any land, each project WLT supports is run and managed by an in-country partner organisation. I am passionate about the conservation of the natural world and am interested in a wide range of topics related to that, from human-wildlife conflict and ecosystem restoration, to encouraging interest and passion for nature.

Hi, I‘m Sabrina, I love the outdoors, laughter, journeys, and connecting with others, including other animals! How are you (but then really) & can you please tell me a story, are two of my favourite questions. Stories of call kinds can inspire, bring us joy, connection, and help us heal. Stories and ACTs can affect change. One of my favourite quotes is along the lines of ‘What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say’ by Ralph Waldo Emerson. It connects deeply to my ideas around flourishing for all. For peoples, other animals, the greater community of life, and this beautiful planet we share. To listen, learn, share, and act from a culture of respect and care. I look forward to connecting with you.   Sabrina Brando is the director of AnimalConcepts, including INTERBEING, an online platform uniting people and organisations on 6 continents, combining animal, people, and planetary wellbeing.

She loves storytelling and writing - particularly about animals, the human-animal connection, and the natural world. She often wears a button with “I love stories” on it. This button sparks many great conversations and storytelling about animals, among many other topics, from people she meets at conferences to strangers on a plane. If you have a story you want to share about the animal(s) you care(d) for, a special friendship you have with your favourite animal, a great action for animals, peoples, or the planet you were involved in, or anything else that makes your heart sing, Sabrina would love to hear from you!
