I work as a programme supervisor and project manager in the South West of England. Within my portfolio I specialise in sustainable land and water management, with a focus on river restoration and woodland habitat creation/restoration. My professional interests include natural flood management, as well as nature based solutions for climate resilience. Outside of my specialisations I am very interested to learn more about marine conservation and marine protected areas globally.

I am a biodiversity conservationist from Cameroon. I recently completed a Professional MSc in Biodiversity Conservation and Management from the University of Bamenda, Cameroon and I am currently pursuing a Conversion MSc in Wildlife Resource Management in the same University. I have been serving as a volunteer for Apiculture and Nature Conservation Organization where we engage communities around protected areas in the North West Region of Cameroon in alternative livelihood activities in order to reduce stress on biodiversity. With the ongoing socio-political conflict in Cameroon’s North West and South West Regions, it has made conservation activities in these regions difficult as forest reserves are now used as hideouts for the non-state armed groups (NSAGs) whose activities are posing threats to biodiversity in these areas. With this setback, I have been working as an independent researcher in Cameroon’s Eastern Region precisely in the Nki National Park which is considered as the “last true wilderness” in Cameroon with lots of biodiversity. My studies have concentrated on forest elephants: its dung decay rate, population status, feeding pattern, anthropogenic disturbances. Human-Elephant conflict is very prevalent in this park which warrants mitigation.

Hello! I have worked in natural resource management and environmental education for several years. In 2022 I moved from Washington State to southern Belize and joined Toledo Institute for Development and Environment (TIDE) to complete a number of capacity buidling projects and an impact assessment of TIDE's high school scholarship program (big impact!). Along the way, I assisted with grant writing for both organizational sustainability and scientific research grants. I completed the contract with TIDE and am now working as a consultant for Empowering Climate Solutions, based in southern Belize. As a natural resources professional I think every day about the impacts of climate change on everything (!) and as an educator, my goal is always to empower others to take command of their future. I love diving and baby turtles, and when I'm not working I enjoy walks with our dog, yoga, and cooking. Check out my bio on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/carolyn-henri-9099006/
