Billy Huanaromo
Natural Resources Management Program Coordinator, Research and Conservation Foundation of Papua New Guinea
I currently hold a Bachelor of Science Degree in Environmental Science and Geography. I am working as the Natural Resources Management Program Coordinator in the Crater Mountain Wildlife Management Area in Papua New Guinea. I am passionate about conserving species that are endemic to the island of New Guinea and that which are on the IUCN Red List of Species.
I'm a UK based conservationist and have worked with conservation charities here since I graduated in 2010. My strengths lie in people engagement, having spent the first ten years of my career in community engagement and volunteer management roles. I currently work for the Osprey Leadership Foundation (Our Team - Osprey Leadership Foundation (ospreylf.org)) developing and delivering programmes which equip early career conservationists with leadership skills.

Greeting everyone,
I'm Aqilah (can be pronounced as Akira if you're Japanese) and my field of expertise is in forestry and conservation in oil palm plantation landscape. I studied in Forest Science, my experience include forest field assessment for carbon stock on planted and natural forest, and I had also participated in an EIA and GIS mapping on land cover change.
My job scope currently focus on conservation related work in oil palm, which include monitoring and implementing best practices in riparian and high conservation value (HCV) areas management for all these areas located within the oil palm plantation. My current project focus, is converting a large HCV area from an oil palm plantation company into Other Effective Conservation Measure (OECM) area, that focus on preserving the biodiversity and carbon stocks. Currently, we are on the 2nd year progressing in converting this area into an accessible, research facility with trained rangers to assist any wildlife/ flora assessment conducted on site.
