Cat SG Members Pakistan

I am a Ph.D. scholar in the Ecology and Biodiversity Program at the Institute of Biological Sciences, University of Malaya, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I also hold a postgraduate degree in education. I have over 18 years of diverse and rich experience in developing, implementing, and monitoring wildlife conservation, research, education, and advocacy programs in the snow leopard range in Pakistan. I started my professional career with the Snow Leopard Trust/WWF-Pakistan in 2001. In 2010, I moved to SLF as Country Program Manager and currently working as Deputy Director in SLF, apart from managing the GEF-UNDP funded Pakistan Snow Leopard and Ecosystem Program (PSLEP) Project as National Project Manager. I was elected as a member of the Steering Committee of Snow Leopard Network in January 2018. I led the team as national PI who fitted the first-ever GPS collar to snow leopard in Chitral Gol National Park in 2006. I am also a member of the Pallas’s cat working group. My expertise includes program management, sustainable development, science-based research and research-based conservation and management of wildlife, and promotion of the Landscape Approach for conservation and community development.
