2025 was wonderful; several scientific publications, two international collaboration grants awarded, several graduates students completed, successful field courses, being nominated on Wildlife Use Rights (UWA) and Wildlife Hazard and Management committees (UCAA). I am humbled🙏
This article just came out. Great collaboration from across the globe. All started with @IPBES doi.org/10.1111/brv.70…
Our latest paper sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
The Uganda Civil Aviation Authority (UCAA) has marked a significant milestone in aviation safety by launching a National Committee on Wildlife Hazards Management, dedicated to reducing wildlife strike risks,particularly from birds, near airports & in Ugandan airspace. @UgandaCAA

@matovuhillary1 I am more than happy to participate
Seeing the threats to our treasured biodiversity through the lens of global species assessment. I am honoured to be part of the team working on the global reassessment of #Odonata fauna @IUCNRedList.
The conservation impact of @TropicalBiology #Alumni is recognized globally. We celebrate @Perpetra & Solohery for winning the 2023 Marsh Award. The two joined and shared their work with other global ecologists at the @BritishEcolSoc conference in Edinburgh, Scotland.
