I am a Venezuelan biologist who has done little fieldwork, mostly dedicated myself to teaching science in the past. Currently working for this NGO I have given the opportunity to support with fundraising for their various projects. It is exciting to be part of Provita's mission and fulfill my life's purpose. I joined WildHub to strengthen my capacities and learn new skills so I can be of more help to conserve my country's wonderful nature and get involved in their programatic activities.
I'm Osben Awinkugri. I'm happy to be part of this great family and looking forward to learning, expanding my networks and connecting with people as I become a catalyst for growth.
I volunteered for two years as a Project Officer in a community-led biodiversity conservation and livelihood empowerment project in communities within the Bui national park in Ghana. The activities included conservation advocacy and capacity building for small scale farmers.
I love reading motivational books, jogging in the morning and always curious to learn new things when given the opportunity.
I am an early career researcher currently working on the recovery of black grouse populations in northern England. From a young age, I have been obsessed with the natural world and have dedicated my life, so far, to working for wildlife.
I have a BSc in Natural Sciences and an MRes in Biology (focussing on nature-based tourism across Africa and the UK). My main interests are: African mega-fauna, species recovery and landscape restoration, human-wildlife co-existence, camera-trapping, research and education.
I joined the WildHub community to network with like-minded individuals and to help pursue my career as well as those around me. Don't hesitate to get in touch!
