Frequently asked questions
Still have questions?
Can you help me with my project?
Let’s get in touch, tell me about your project, and we will discuss all your needs.

It depends on the type of services you need. When addressing your needs, I get a clear idea of the scope of the work, and in close cooperation with you, I create the offer.

I can help you find a suitable funding program, help you find partners, and help you in drafting your project idea.

Can you help us brainstorm a project idea?
Yes, I can. I help you brainstorm concrete projects and activities, and help you formulate your needs.
Can you help us include the local community in our project?
Yes, I can. Local communities like to be included in nature conservation projects and want to be heard. As this is one of my core areas of expertise, I will help you include the local community and key stakeholders in your project.
