Nice job to Natalie, GC'23!
I’m excited and grateful to announce I started a new position as the Ontario Regional Advisor to the Minister of Environment and Climate Change Canada! The first few months have been a great opportunity to work closely on the environmental policies and politics that shape our future. 🇨🇦🌎🌳
In the light of climate change, coral reefs are on the brink of the fourth major bleaching event - and that's on a global scale. Although the widely known Great Barrier Reef is also in a devastating state, the situation is actually much wider spatially and corals are affected throughout the tropics, including Florida, the Caribbean, Brazil, the Middle East and parts of the Indian Ocean...

The Management Effectiveness Tracking Tool (METT) is a simple, open source approach to assessing protected and conserved areas. Which means it is constantly evolving for different conditions, cultures and needs. Currently looking at better representation of gender and climate issues with IUCN in Jordan.
Delighted to be in Jordan working with IUCN to adapt the METT into the Jordanian context. Working with a brilliant group of PA managers, IUCN staff and other colleagues.

In a recent interview with Vietnam News Agency, I shared my thoughts on Vietnam's efforts in combating illegal, unreported, and unregulated (IUU) fishing. In 2017, Vietnam was given a yellow card by the European Commission. Since then, the country has revised its legal framework and adopted several policies to meet the Commission's requirements and international fishing standards. I proposed three recommendations for Vietnam to better address the problem and build a more sustainable fisheries sector. Many thanks to Ms. Thanh Tú for reaching out!
