I have a master's degree in Animal Behavior and Conservation from Hunter College in New York, NY. After five years working in marine animal stranding response in Florida, I started The Wildlife Research Alliance, a non-profit dedicated to increasing equity in conservation behavior research by way of fully-funded internships. My experience is mainly with sea turtles, manatees, and bottlenose dolphins, but I have also studied harlequin ducks, snow leopards, and elephantnose fish. I am interested in how climate change is affecting marine and terrestrial animals, animal socialization and humor, and ways in which we can make conservation easier for the general public.

I have a MSc in Zoo Conservation Biology with Distinction from the University of Plymouth, linked with Paignton Zoo Environmental Park; the Wild Planet Trust. During my MSc, WildTeam gave a presentation on conservation planning, further teaching me of the fundamental importance of planning for a successful conservation project. In the future, I would like to complete WildTeam's Project Management for Wildlife Conservation training so I can plan and manage such projects as the one I am currently working on.

I'm currently a MSc Student at the University of Exeter Cornwall studying Conservation & Biodiversity. I studied at the University of Kent for 3 years where I completed my undergraduate degree in Wildlife Conservation. My hobbies include photography, exploring new places, and interior design. I love learning and expanding my knowledge of the conservation world! This is something I've always been passionate about and hope to continue as a career. 

I am an environmental economist so most of my professional life I worked on projects that related to "human habitats". But since I have been a child I have been fascinated and have a special way of connecting with animals. So working across worlds and finding effective ways to protect ecosystems is my passion. It is a privilege for me to exchange and connect with people who have been involved all their lives in conservation.

I have quite good experience on program development, ME and knowledge management system for conservation program

Hi all!  My name is Alexandra Howard and I'm a South African PhD candidate focusing on the ecosystem services of bats in apple farms in the Afromontane Research Unit at the University of the Free State in central South Africa. After graduating with a Masters degree in Zoology from the University of Pretoria, I worked as a research manager in the NGO sector with a focus on endangered species including vultures, rhinoceros and pangolins. My goal is to connect the fields of science, conservation and society by narrowing the information gaps and encouraging collaboration.

Hi all! I'm Lucy and I'm currently studying MSc Sustainability and Ecology at the Centre of Alternative Technology. I have an interest in IUCN red listed species, indigenous and local ecological knowledge, and habitat restoration.  I'm also interested in networking with other environmentalists, and gaining more experience within the sector through volunteering or gaining a part-time job. I have previously worked as a higher education placement student at an  environmental education charity in the UK, so I'll be happy to share my experience and help people who are interested in the field.

Hi I'm Jen. I am 52 years old  -I have been passionate about Nature & Wildlife my whole life and was brought up in the UK in Devon and then Norfolk, so always surrounded by the wild landscapes and what they have to offer! I now live in Lancashire by the sea but we have access to the countryside within 5 minutes in every direction.  My week is spent between working for The Wildlife Trust & running my Property Rental Business. The rest of the time is doing our 1/3 acre garden which is totally dedicated to nature and the environment. I Volunteer 2 other days a week with my local Wildlife Trust covering roles from Visitor Engagement and Marketing, to woodland conservation, physically tending the reserves, hedge laying, botany surveys, assisting with Beach School on Sand Dunes and much more. I joined WildHub to connect with likeminded people and to complete courses, gathering helpful resources along the way .  I have begun to participate in various training courses and roles and additionally have become involved in local green woodworking groups, forestry societies and more - it has become an addiction!!! :) Also, I am very passionate about mindfulness, wellbeing, forest bathing, wild swimming and spending as much of my time as possible outdoors.  I'm lucky to have travelled to many countries across the world looking at local wildlife, such as South Africa, Canada, USA, and lots of Europe. Additionally I donate to various Wildlife Conservation Charities both in the UK and abroad.  The environment, sustainability and conservation are the things I want to concentrate on from now on.
