Conservation Evangelist and Writer, Hobby Birdwatcher and Conservation Volunteer. I regularly take part in Pro Bono Consulting for Wildlife Projects.  Professional Certificate in Measuring and Monitoring Urban Nature IUCN 

I help conservationists around the world design outreach and communication plans that motivate action & change. My methodology brings together best practices from commercial advertising, relevant theories from the behavioral & social sciences, insights from global consumer trends, and real-world conservation experiences. Offering: online workshops, online courses, and consulting services.

My conservation journey began working directly with communities to promote coexistence with wildlife. My passion lies in empowering people to see themselves as partners in conservation, protecting the spaces and species we share. I hope to deepen my skills, learn from fellow conservationists, and contribute to a future where both people and nature thrive.

Hello everyone! My name is Tanvir and I am from Bangladesh. Currently I am working at WildTeam as Programme Officer. WildTeam is a conservation based organization mostly focused on Bengal Tiger conservation. Basically, I am from Forestry background which inspired me to do something for tiger conservation. Besides, I have completed my masters program in Development Studies. However, in spite of my conservation career, I have worked in Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) field, Nutrition field, Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) field, food security and livelihood field and so on mostly as Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Officer in my entire career. I have joined here for uplifting my knowledge to strengthen my professional career as well as to serve my insatiable thrust about knowing wildlife biology and conservation works from around the world.

I am a conservationist based in Nepal. I did my MSc in Conservation and International Wildlife Trade from DICE-Kent. I am currently working to understand the trade dynamics of some of the most traded medicinal plants like orchids and yews. I am interested in understanding how socioeconomic and behavioral factors interact and impact the wildlife trade (incl. the online trade spectrum and various stakeholders in it) and using this knowledge in designing effective conservation actions. 

I was born and raised in Switzerland, where I spent the first 39 years of my life living what many would consider a typical, privileged Swiss lifestyle – a good job, a successful career, financial stability, and plenty of material comfort. But a few years ago, I came to a life-changing realisation: despite having everything I was "supposed" to want, I wasn’t truly happy. I felt something was missing – a sense of purpose and a life lived in alignment with my heart. Nature and safaris had always been a passion of mine, so I decided to take a leap of faith and follow that inner calling. I took a year off and enrolled in a professional field guide course in South Africa, with placements in Botswana and Zambia. I worked with children and communities in conservation education, capacity building, and research – and absolutely loved it. When the course ended, I knew I couldn’t go back to my old life in Switzerland. I had found not only my purpose, but also the love of my life – and a deep connection to Africa. By chance, I discovered an opportunity at Sensing Clues, and after speaking with Jan-Kees, I realised it was the perfect bridge between my past experience and future goals. Today, I’m working part-time as an Impact Facilitator at Sensing Clues, where I manage marketing, communications, community engagement, and partnerships. Alongside this, I also help co-manage Kusasa, a donor lodge run by the Wild Tomorrow Fund, located in the heart of the stunning Greater Ukuwela Nature Reserve in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa – where I’m now living. I joined WildHub because I truly believe in collaboration. At Sensing Clues, we work closely with passionate individuals from around the world to co-create innovative, volunteer-driven solutions for conservation. I’m here to connect with like-minded people, exchange knowledge, and share work opportunities to create a bigger, longer-lasting impact – together and beyond the front lines. We’ll soon be launching free online events through Sensing Clues, and I’d love to share them with this community – so that passionate individuals can learn, contribute, and get involved in meaningful ways.  I also hope to share the practical knowledge and insights I gained in the bush while training and working as a guide.  I’m always looking to grow, explore new ideas, and keep learning. True to my motto –  "Driven by purpose, guided by heart" – I believe that a meaningful life begins with passion, purpose, and connection.

" There are opportunities even in the most difficult moments"  Wangari Maathai, Unbowed. Nature and Wildlife have always been a part of me since I can remember, well, since i got curious as to why my father( Environmental Scientist) had a green and yellow pen with the WWF inscription and logo contrary with the WWF I knew( Wrestling). With over a decade of leadership experience in the pharmaceutical sector, I'm excited to apply my skills in strategic communication and stakeholder engagement to conservation efforts. I'm particularly interested in habitats preservation, human-Wildlife conflict mitigation, and species protection. I'm looking to connect with like-minded professionals, learn from their experiences, and contribute to meaningful conservation projects.

I am a biologist passionate about biodiversity conservation and environmental sustainability, with academic training and hands-on experience in scientific research, fieldwork, and environmental education. Continuing to grow professionally is my greatest motivation. I am always eager to learn from others and contribute to projects that promote the study, conservation, and respect for nature.

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.

Here are the 3 things I am all about: 1. Nature From day one my favorite place to be and my north star in every life decision I make. I want to protect and rewild as much nature as I possibly can. In order to do so I created 2 businesses: Wildya - my attempt to give personal development a wild update Wild Business Mates - my consulting service to empower wild change makers 2. Personal Development I am life long learner and believe that we can live happier if we take matters into our own hands. Daily tiny actions accumulate. So with Wildya, I can support you to take action and change your life. 3. Ecopreneurship The world needs to change. The most successful companies & NGOs of tomorrow generate positive impact at scale. If you attempting to do this, let me help you. I am building Wildya transparently, to provide a clear blueprint on how to take an idea from 0 to a sustainable business / NGO. Creating a community of wild change-makers, as well as consulting them along the way.
