It has been my honor and pleasure to work alongside Ali Duvall in the creation of the Western Conservation Leadership Development Program.

At a time when seas are rising, temperatures climbing, storms intensifying, and floods and droughts worsening because of fossil fuel emissions, deforestation, ​and human consumption, some analysts warn that we are only at the start of a global warming era that will make present-day civilization impossible.

Ali’s more than 20 years experience and practice in community-based and landscape-scale conservation has equipped her with the leadership capacity required to empower and inspire a new generation of leaders around the world. With nearly 10 years experience in adaptive leadership, she has been an important catalyst to create training, forums, and other opportunities for conservation professionals to address a range of complex environmental challenges.
