I’m Alexandra Verdes, an ecologist and environmental project manager with over 5 years of experience in the NGO and conservation sector. I currently work with WWF Romania, supporting the implementation of various projects, including cross-border initiatives focused on wildlife connectivity and conservation in the Carpathians, as well as forestry, innovation, and climate change projects. My academic background includes a Master’s in Ecology and Biodiversity Conservation and specialised training in animal-assisted therapy, waste management, and environmental education. I’ve also worked with youth groups, local communities, and international partners to organise different events, trainings, and outreach programs. My key interests include: 🟢Biodiversity protection: wildlife and forestry conservation 🟢 Wildlife crime- illegal logging (new interest) 🟢 Environmental education 🟢 Community involvement in conservation 🟢 Project coordination and donor reporting I’m enthusiastic about collaboration, sharing knowledge, and learning from others working in the field of nature conservation.

Caring for the Earth is as essential as protecting the organisms within it. Growing up in a community rich in natural resources, yet the lack of ecological awareness led to the vulnerability of biodiversity (flora and fauna) due to devastating environmental degradation. This sparked a pivotal shift in my career path. Instead of healing people (children) as a pediatrician, I chose to heal ecosystems as a Wildlife Biologist and Ecologist. I am currently pursuing an MPhil in Wildlife and Range Management at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST). I have spent the last five years actively contributing to conservation efforts in Ghana. My experience spans roles at the Kumasi Zoological Gardens, Safari Valley Eco Resort (Safari Eco Park), Resource Management Support Center (RMSC), and field research at Mole National Park. I have developed interpersonal, technical, and soft skills in education, outreach, and tour guiding, wildlife Management and research, and GIS and remote sensing applications. I am driven by the ambition to be a Voice for Wildlife, and I am eager to contribute my skills to a multidisciplinary team like the WildHub Community, where I can help protect Earth’s biodiversity. My love for wildlife and biodiversity has motivated me in every step of my career in the new phase of my life. I hope to take the right direction in fulfilling my passion of caring for wildlife and nature that nurtures us.                                                                                                Being a Voice for Wildlife

I am an Economist and Researcher who is passionate about the conservation, biodiversity, nature based solutions and preservation of the ecosystem and the environment. I have experience as a reviewer and policy advocate.  I look forward to finding the like-minded people and learn from one another.

My name is Nellia Felicity Nyoni, and I was born in Zimbabwe. I have lived in Namibia, where I pursued my undergraduate and postgraduate studies. I worked with pigs, dairy cattle during my internships in Namibia. I have met a lot of good people that have helped shape the lady I am today. I developed a love for GENOMICS, a field I thought was impossible to understand. Currently doing a PhD in genetics, biodiversity and evolution at the University of Porto.  And am excited to have completed the Project Management for Wildlife Conservation V4, and I look forward to working with the great and exceptional Wildlife team members.

I am well organized, highly motivated, dependable, hand working and able to multitask. I AM OPEN FOR EMPLOYMENT. 

My background is in community-led landscape restoration, women’s leadership, and climate resilience across Africa. I currently serve as the Africa Programs Manager at the Women’s Earth Alliance (WEA), where I lead the design, implementation, and evaluation of regional programs that strengthen women’s leadership in ecosystem restoration, climate justice, and sustainable development. In this role, I co-develop multi-year strategies, oversee monitoring, evaluation, and learning systems, mentor grassroots partners, and drive partnerships that advance environmental resilience and gender equality. Over the past decade, I have worked with organizations such as the Green Belt Movement, the International Tree Foundation, and One Tree Planted, where I managed national and continental reforestation programs and championed gender integration in conservation. I am also the Co-founder and Biocultural Restoration Advisor at Homegrown Sustainability Solutions, an initiative that bridges traditional knowledge and modern practices to foster regenerative, community-led restoration in Kenya and beyond. As a Registered Environmental Impact Assessment and Audit Lead Expert with advanced qualifications in project planning and environmental science, I am passionate about connecting local wisdom with global action—ensuring that women, youth, and communities remain at the heart of Africa’s regenerative future.

A conservation biologist transitioning into policy, current interest is in governance and power balance of Nature based Solutions.

I am a passionate communicator and researcher with an extensive background in the environmental humanities and social sciences, dedicated to exploring and fostering connections between people and nature. Based between Sweden and the UK, I work in academia as a researcher and lecturer, teaching courses in environmental law, historical ecology, and disaster risk management. I actively contribute to non-profit organisations promoting conservation and animal welfare. I work with Faunalytics, translating complex research into accessible insights for evidence-based advocacy; write feature articles for Ubuntu Magazine spotlighting conservation initiatives; and serve as Community Advocates Coordinator at WildHub, driving strategic communications and leading initiatives that connect and empower conservation practitioners worldwide. When I’m not working, you’ll find me hiking forest trails with my dog or enjoying a good cup of coffee.

I am a graduate of Forestry and Environmental Management from Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, Abia State, Nigeria, with a strong interest in wildlife conservation, biodiversity, ornithology, forestry, and environmental sustainability. I am passionate about understanding and protecting natural ecosystems and hope to build a career that combines field-based conservation, ecological research, environmental management, and community engagement. My academic training provided me with foundational knowledge and practical experience in areas including forest management, wildlife ecology, biodiversity conservation, nursery management, seed technology, plantation establishment, environmental management, and ecological field surveys. These experiences have strengthened my interest in applying scientific knowledge to real-world environmental and conservation challenges. I have gained additional practical exposure through participation in conservation and biodiversity initiatives, including the Nigerian Bird Atlas Project (NiBAP) under the A.P. Leventis Ornithological Research Institute (APLORI). I have also volunteered with the Biodiversity Preservation Center (BPC), Uyo, contributing to biodiversity awareness, environmental education, and conservation-related activities. I am particularly interested in ornithology, wildlife monitoring, ecological research, habitat conservation, and technology in environmental management. My training in remote sensing and snakebite management has strengthened my field research and environmental monitoring skills. I also actively document biodiversity through wildlife observation, photography, plant cultivation, and bird monitoring and contribute to iNaturalist, where I continue to learn through citizen science and collaboration with naturalists globally. I am open to cooperation, research, internships, fellowships, scholarships, training, and more academic possibilities as I start my career. Working with researchers, conservation groups, non-governmental organizations, academic institutions, and other groups that promote environmental sustainability and biodiversity conservation excites me. I am currently looking for possibilities to obtain more experience, contribute to meaningful conservation work, further my professional development, and become a competent wildlife and environmental conservation specialist. 🦁🐍🦅🌳 Feel free to connect with me via the following platforms: Twitter: Happiness Eniang  Facebook: Happiness Eniang
