Talking Threats, Solutions, and Community in Biodiversity MAG

Morteza Pourmirzai

I am a dedicated wildlife conservationist with 17 years of experience, driven by a passion for preserving the natural world and its most vulnerable species. My journey began in 2007 as a volunteer with the Iranian Cheetah Society (ICS), where I quickly became involved in roles such as Public Relations Manager and Education and Participation Manager. This hands-on experience deepened my understanding of wildlife conservation challenges, especially in a region facing severe environmental and political issues. In 2018, I was honored to become CEO of the ICS, a position I held until June 2024. As I continue my journey, I am eager to explore new opportunities to further my impact. I am committed to making a meaningful difference in wildlife conservation and look forward to connecting with like-minded professionals who share this vision.
