Vincent is interested in collaborative conservation, protected area management, and natural resources governance with special interest in the conservation of the critically endangered cross river gorilla. He is currently the Afi Mountain Wildlife Sanctuary (known for gorillas, chimps and drills) Project Manager where he promotes Wildlife Conservation Society’s (WCS) mission through law enforcement and research work with support from rangers and in close contact with communities, government agencies and other stakeholders. Prior to joining WCS in 2019, Vincent spent the last 5 years working with NGOCE Nigeria as their programing/project management Volunteer and also with Earthcorps in Seattle, USA, first as an eco-restoration crew member and later as an eco-restoration crew leader. Vincent holds a bachelor’s degree in Environmental Resources Management, from the University of Calabar, Nigeria and a Master’s degree in Natural Resources Management and Climate Change from Bayero University, Nigeria. Vincent is currently undergoing a graduate course on Endangered Species Management at the Durrell Conservation Academy in Jersey, UK which is affiliated to the university of Kent. In his free time, Vincent can be found taking a walk in nature, watching arsenal matches and spending time with family. I am here to network and connect with people that have passion and interest in the conservation of wildlife and wild places. I also look forward to sharing and getting opportunities and learnings that will aid my growth on conservation for the benefit of wildlife and the local communities I work with

Identifying innovative approaches and improved solutions to business challenges both motivate and drive me. Observation, inspiration, and determination are my foundation for success. My philosophy is that introducing fresh perspectives and new techniques allow businesses to evolve and grow. My goal is to remain on the cutting-edge of advancements. 

Hi, I am Wildlife Manager with experience in species conservation and monitoring. Conducting Research, habitat protection and rehabilitation by fighting illegal activities detrimental to the environment and species.

I work on communications and learning with the Landscape Finance Lab to support teams working on large-scale landscape solutions. Providing access to conservation finance learning opportunities and hosting a platform for landscape teams to showcase their concepts and development process.  

I am co-leading PROGRES, a Sulawesi-based NGO to initiate and empower locally-led conservation to protect threatened yet overlooked wildlife. After obtaining my MS degree in Wildlife Ecology and Conservation at the University of Florida, I had worked as a conservation scientist in the Wildlife Conservation Society Indonesia and chaired Tambora Muda, national-level network of Indonesian young conservationists.

Currently finishing my masters degree in Marine Sciences and Climate Change at the University of Gibraltar. I am passionate about Wildlife Conservation and have worked and volunteered at various Wildlife Sanctuaries and Rescue Centers, caring and learning from Chimpanzees, Gibbons, Sunbears, Macaws and many other fascinating species. My work experience includes managing a recycling plant, project management and environmental consulting. I am excited to be here and hope to learn and share my and your passions with the community.

I am a passionate conservationist and research biologist with over 20 years of experience working in Southern Africa. Here I have spent time researching the insects of the Namib through to the hippos, lions and elephants of Botswana. These experiences have given me a solid understanding of the challenges of field research, large mammal conservation, the complexities of resource competition and the importance of stakeholder relationships. My research interests focus on the social and ecological requirements of mammals in the context of a human landscape as we seek long-term conservation solutions. I have been pursuing this through active research on the African savannah elephant (Loxodonta africana), previous work on African lions (Panthera leo), Samango monkeys (Cercopithecus mitis labiatus), hippopotami (Hippopotamus amphibious) and meerkats (Suricatta suricatta). Recent trends and my own personal observations have highlighted the importance of individuals and social ecology in the long-term conservation of mammals. I believe having a holistic approach to conservation, understanding the social and ecological needs of both wildlife and humans living alongside, we will move towards human-wildlife coexistence and effective long-term conservation measures. I independently created and founded both my Masters and PhD studies and then founded the Charity and NGO Elephants for Africa; thus have expensive experience in project management, fundraising, communications and budgeting. My work has received international recognition personally and through Elephants for Africa for our research (Georg B Rabb Conservation Award) and education (Silver Medal Global Good Awards) programmes. I am a Gothenburg Global Biodiversity Centre member and a member of the KAZA elephant sub-working group and the Elephant Specialist Advisory Group.    

Passionate and enthusiastic Marine Biologist. Looking to pursue a career in research/conservation. Strong interest in public engagement, education and project management.

CTO at Aposphere GmbH, a platform for strategy planning, portfolio management data capturing and integration.

I am a recent graduate of BSc Biology and MSc Environmental Change and International Development. My interests lie at the intersection of climate change, conservation, and international development. Currently, I work for Gaddum - a charity that supports unpaid carers, including young carers, and offers a variety of mental health support across Greater Manchester. I'm enjoying working in the third sector as my first full-time job, but I would like to gain more skills specifically tailored to my areas of interest. That's why I've come to do this WildHub course!

Hi my name is Magdalena Erich, I am a biologist and I work for WWF Austria as a project coordinator. Currently I am working in the LIFE project EuroLargeCarnivores, an EU project with 16 partners, which aims at coexistence with large carnivores.  My passion belongs to large carnivores, especially wolves. I have also worked in LC monitoring projects in Canada and Romania. I love to be out in the mountains and forests with my dog.
