With a decade of experience in the international cooperation sector, I have managed diverse projects across all continents, focusing on community-based approaches at the intersection of gender, social, and climate justice to enhance food security and empower women economically. My journey led me to deepen my expertise in biodiversity conservation by developing climate adaptation projects that prioritize nature-positive outcomes. I am particularly intrigued by migratory species that travel vast distances, adapting their routes in response to human activities and the shifting climate to survive. In my current role at Birds Canada, I oversee and develop conservation projects for migratory bird habitats along their flyways, integrating social justice into our efforts. This involves actively advocating for the recognition of the rights and contributions of all conservation actors, especially marginalized communities, women, and Indigenous Peoples. In my free time, I seek solace in nature through activities like hiking, camping, and paddling, which offer a refreshing escape from the busyness of everyday life. e-mail: emorin @ birdscanada.org
