Hello everyone 🤗,
I am Abomo Marthe Phannel, I am a passionate and results-driven young conservationist with a Master's degree in Natural Resources Management and a Bachelor's degree in Physical Geography. With over two years of hands-on experience in the field, I have contributed to climate action and biodiversity conservation projects across Cameroon. My areas of expertise include wildlife identification, ecotourism, community engagement, stakeholder engagement, program coordination, and partnership development.
I had the opportunity to work with reputable organizations like the Zoological Society of London (ZSL), where I contributed to species monitoring through advanced tools like camera traps, acoustics sensors and GIS mapping. I am currently working with African Voices for African Forests, where I am in charge of strategic partnerships and the organization of impactful networking events.
Bilingual in French and English, and proficient in digital tools, I am committed to advancing environmental sustainability through inclusive and collaborative approaches.
Passionate about biodiversity conservation, I work in Chinese pangolin and freshwater turtle research, wildlife ecology, and GIS-based analysis. As a Wildlife Biologist at the Creative Conservation Alliance, I work on conservation initiatives to protect endangered species and their habitats in Bangladesh.
For the last 8 years I have been involved in planning for biodiversity conservation and ecosystem services, ecological restoration and monitoring of flora and fauna throughout Chile and Europe.
The last time I have dedicated to expand my knowledge in ecology towards aquatic ecosystems, acquiring tools in scientific diving, coastal planning and bioacoustics.
My name is Fidèle KASANGANDJO MWAGALWA, a Congolese national, passionate about environmental conservation and the sustainable management of natural resources. I am an experienced and committed environmental analyst with over five years of experience in ecological monitoring and anti-poaching operations across Africa.
Over the course of my career, I have developed strong expertise in analyzing ecological dynamics and using advanced tools such as Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and remote sensing technologies.
💼 Most recently, I served as an Environmental Monitoring Analyst at African Parks Congo, where I played a key role in producing strategic reports to guide ranger patrol operations. I also conducted operational analyses to assess the impacts of human activities on biodiversity, supervised aerial surveillance missions, and studied poaching trends—contributing to the preservation of wildlife in Garamba National Park.
🔍 Previously, I worked as a researcher at the Congo Basin Water Resources Research Center, where I led projects focused on water resource analysis and hydrological modeling. My work provided strategic insights for the sustainable development of local territories. My ability to collect, process, and analyze complex data, combined with my skills in supervision and project management, enabled me to contribute to impactful initiatives such as projects related to the Climate-Water-Migration nexus.
🌱 Today, I am open to new opportunities and collaborations in environmental management, sustainable development, and natural resource analysis. I strongly believe that environmental protection requires an integrated and collaborative approach. I aspire to work with diverse stakeholders to promote long-term, sustainable solutions.
đź“© Please feel free to reach out to discuss potential collaborations or to share experiences. I am enthusiastic about applying my expertise to new projects and challenges.

Hi everyone, I’m Fiona – I’m based in Wales and currently work in digital learning for the NHS. My background is in project management across quite a mix of sectors, including healthcare, education, events, and heritage. Over time, I’ve felt a growing pull towards nature and conservation, and I’ve reached a point where I want my day-to-day work to align more closely with those values. I’m here to learn how I can make that shift and to connect with others on a similar path. Looking forward to getting to know you all!
