The Conservation Collective - Expert Impact

Berta Manzano

The Conservation Collective

Met with James Eder

A network of local foundations funding effective grass-roots conservation initiatives to protect the environment, restore nature and safeguard against climate change.

Being paired with James as a mentor was such a breath of fresh air for me, as he was able to provide me with a toolkit of expertise and perspectives I had not considered before! Sometimes you just need someone from outside your field of work to tell you ‘you can do it!’
