About Yanna Vogiazou
Hello, I'm Yanna, a design consultant helping social and environmental impact organizations to design innovative solutions that address complex challenges. My approach combines human-centered design and behavior change strategies. I believe that understanding the drivers and barriers of human behavior in relation to environmental challenges is essential in order to design sustainable and transformative community programs that achieve conservation goals. I facilitate a design process with my clients to create tools, services and programs that drive systemic change, exploring solutions beyond campaigns and educational approaches.
I am really passionate about protecting nature and wildlife. Although my design experience stems mostly from healthcare, humanitarian aid, agriculture and climate change resilience programs (see https://designfollowsinsight.com/projects/), I have also worked on developing a biodiversity monitoring and reporting innovation strategy. My goal is to apply design research methodologies and innovation in the service of wildlife and nature.

Many thanks for sharing this very useful information and findings of your research, Yanna! Much appreciated. How have you experienced the process?
Hi Thirza,
My apologies for the delayed response, I just saw your question now, the notification email had somehow ended up in spam! Thank you so much for your positive feedback.
I really loved talking to the field experts, hearing their stories, their challenges and successes. I believe their amazing knowledge and expertise is reflected in these insights. I think this piece of research would benefit also from some conservation sponsor/leading organisation perspectives to help identify gaps between strategy & project design and field implementation, when it comes to community programs.
Thanks for sharing this opportunity with us, Yana! Sounds interesting and it would be amazing if you could share some of the insights that were shared with you with our community as you continue on this exploration.
It also reminds me of a recent conversation we had during one of our WildHub Socials so looping in some people who I think may be interested in this topic too @Vimbainashe Eunick , @Grace Alawa , @Eberechi Cecilia Osuagwu, Wildhub Advocate , @MuKasa Emmanuel , @Aiita Joshua Apamaku , @Muthoni Njuguna , @Ruth Jepkemoi and @Collins Busuru : hi all, please see Yana's request above. I thought you may be willing to share your insights and help us all learn from your experiences.
Thank you so much @Thirza Loffeld for sharing this with people working on this topic in the community! I am now responding to each person commenting below directly, to set up a call.
Welcome to WildHub, Yanna! Your design project sounds fascinating. Have you checked out the Diversity, equity, inclusion channel? It might be a way to find members discussing human behavior challenges.
Thank you for pointing me in the right direction Lara! I will check out the channel and try to post an invite for a conversation on human behaviour challenges and community engagement.
