About Marli Burger

I am a conservation biologist committed to wildlife conservation through rigorous scientific research and evidence-based approaches to sustainable conservation solutions, bridging the gap between science and decision-making. I hold a Master's degree in Zoology from the University of Pretoria (South Africa). My active involvement in environmental management, planning, and research reflects a strong commitment to sustainable development. I am currently working as a programme support officer for an international NGO (TRAFFIC) focused on ensuring that trade in wild species is legal and sustainable. I provide technical support to two UNDP-GEF 6 projects focused on promoting the legal and sustainable use of medicinal plants and analysing the socio-economic drivers of illegal plant trade in the Northern and Western Cape (South Africa).
