A wonderful and inspiring interview@Taranee and@Alain Mukiranya 

@Alain Mukiranya : your insights about the language barrier to understanding policies and international treaties resonated with me. Thank you for sharing. 
I also wanted to ask you; what is your favourite story you use for raising awareness because of its impact?

@Taranee What was your favourite part of the Conservation Catalyst process? 

A big shout out to WildHub coach
@Christine Tansey for facilitating this process! 

I met wonderful people from a community of natural scientists from whom I learned a lot from their experiences in nature conservation.
@Taranee  is the best one.

Dear @Thirza Loffeld 
Thank you very much for the interest and connection with my colleague @Aiita Joshua Apamaku 

We met in August 2022 at the Africa Protected Areas Congress in Kigali, Rwanda.
We even had several activities together at the youth pavilion with Natureforall.

I think it will be great if we grow together, especially in learning and common project, because here in the Congo, storytelling is not as advanced as it is in Kenya, South Africa, or elsewhere.

Dear @thirza

Thank you very much for the interest and for your sensitivity.
I often start by telling my love story with nature.
The story of my encounter with the gorillas in the forest when we were little.
This is to encourage them to give more meaning and passion to their encounter with the animals in the park.
Afterwards I ask some members of the community to tell us about their encounters with the gorillas, how it was and how they felt when they first met the animals in the park.
