IUCN NL works together with nature NGOs and community-based organisations around the globe. Our local partners, with which we often develop long-term relationships, are essential to our work. The people working at these organisations are true conservation heroes on the frontline of nature conservation. In the \u2018Meet the conservationist\u2019 series, we give a platform to these dedicated people, who – without exception – have an important story to tell.<\/h4>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
