Hello, I am an aspiring social conservationist from Guyana (in South America). I like to dabble in research on human-wildlife conflict, perception and attitudinal studies and performance assessments. But I also am involved in wildlife monitoring and management.  My primary goal is to invest more in community development work to foster sustainable livelihoods in environmentally dependent communities.  

Hi there! I am an anthropologist & primatologist with a deep love and admiration for the natural world. I am passionate about primate conservation, specifically gibbons, and focused both my MA and PhD research on the elusive & enchanting Javan gibbon, and worked in collaboration with colleagues from the Javan Gibbon Center in West Java in order to achieve this. My research comprised elements of social anthropology (qualitative interviews with local people in West Java & social network research on the illegal wildlife trade) and conservation biology (population viability modelling & behavioural observations) and addressed a range of conservation issues relevant to the highly endangered Javan gibbon. I have participated in three releases of Javan gibbons back to the wild, including the very first one in 2009! I am a member of the IUCN Section on Small Apes and participate in two working groups with the Malaysian Primatological Society developing a national action plan for Malaysian gibbons. After my experience working in the education departments at both the Oregon Zoo and now currently Edinburgh Zoo, I have become quite passionate about conservation education and hope to inspire the younger generation to love the natural world as much as I do!

I am a Conservation Biology student studying BSc Honours Degree in Biology. I have been actively involved in wildlife conservation practices doing field research education and training in local schools.

Hi! I currently live in Malta but lived in London for 11 years where I did a Postgraduate degree in Protected Area & Conservation Management at Birkbeck University. I volunteered for a number of eNGOs there but mainly worked in admin jobs for various organisations. I returned to Malta 3 years ago and now work in Malta's largest protected area - Majjistral Park - as an Events Officer. I used to lead guided walks and organise other activities in the Park before Covid but now run regular online talks about environmental topics, online activities for kids and coordinate our volunteers.  I would like to work in a more conservation based role but am still looking for an opportunity to move into this. I am hoping this course will give me the ability to stand out with a valuable skill. My general interests are nature (of course!), environmental conservation, hiking, reading, nature-based art, upcycling and yoga.

I am an undergraduate student at the Institute Of Forestry, Hetauda campus under Tribhuvan University with a keen interest in wildlife conservation and Ecology Study. Currently, I'm working as a student intern at Forest Research and Training Centre under the Ministry of Forest and Environment, Nepal as a part of my undergraduate research study. I'm also seeking for research assistantship for my masters.

I´m PM4R Master certificated for BID and I work as a Project Manager at Natura International, an NGO dedicated to the creation of protected areas. I am in my last year of Biology at the National University of Cordoba and I am doing my final thesis on mammals in a reserve in my province. During my career I have done volunteer work in La Coronilla, Uruguay with sea turtles and I am currently doing a research internship in the project "Defaunacion de la mastofauna en la porción Sur del Gran Chaco Americano". I would like to specialize in conservation and ecology
