Tara A. Pierce

Founder / Sustainability Consultant, Restoring Sustainability

I'm an art activist who went to law school and developed my own sustainability consulting business based on uniting human activity with habitat. My two areas of focus are Nature- and place-based programming and project development that emphasise community leadership; additionally, I offer workshops to organisations to rethink what "sustainability" means in their sector, helping them think beyond buzzwords and transform their work into tangible, positive action.
Lisa Wheeler

Grants and Networks Officer, Whitley Fund for Nature

I lead on the Whitley Fund for Nature's Network Development programme, supporting and creating connections among the 200-strong global network to foster knowledge exchange and collaboration, and strengthen capacity. Previous to this role, I worked for Galapagos Conservation Trust for over seven years across project management and operations/finance. I hold an MSc in Conservation Science from Imperial College London. I am passionate about habitat restoration, the conservation of endemic species and inspiring the next generation of conservation leaders.
