How can I participate in international wildlife protection work?

Protection is a practice, and what we need to do in practice is to discover problems, solve problems, then discover problems, and then solve problems. Therefore, it is necessary to find existing problems in protection through continuous practice opportunities, create solutions to the problems, and then summarize and reflect, and start over and over again. Therefore, the most important thing is to find opportunities for practice. I will list a few aspects: becoming a government-related staff member. In China, the government is the main force in implementing conservation work. For example, the wildlife protection department and protected area management department of the forestry department; the environmental protection department also needs personnel for biodiversity protection and management. However, there are certain thresholds for civil service examinations, such as professional restrictions and degrees. Become a researcher. Although conservation is a practice, it still requires a lot of scientific theory to support it. Conservation biology is also an independent subject. There are corresponding schools at home and abroad that offer such majors. You can consider continuing your studies. In the process, participate in teachers' projects, etc., understand how basic theoretical knowledge and technology play a role in protection, and decide your own development direction. Become an NGO staff member. But wildlife protection is a big concept, and NGOs are usually very small and only serve regional areas (such as North China, South China, Qinghai-Tibet, Africa, oceans, forests), or a certain group of species (such as birds, two species reptiles, fish, cats), or a specific theme (such as wildlife rescue, wildlife trade, sustainable development, nature education, protected area management), or focus on a specific strategy. So when choosing an NGO, you can consider your own points of interest, but are your points of interest not necessarily important? Not necessarily, it may be due to insufficient understanding, or changes, and the situation is constantly changing. Then, when choosing an NGO, you can look at several aspects: Understand the NGO’s mission and vision, as well as the projects it has carried out in the past. This is crucial to its future focus, so you can understand your future through these. Work content. Become a volunteer or intern. Most well-run NGO organizations have a large number of job requirements for volunteers or interns. They may not have good subsidies, but good NGOs can tell you clear job responsibilities and provide you with It provides you with a learning atmosphere and gradually builds your future plans through internships and studies. Openness and diversity. To protect wild animals, it is not enough to only understand one aspect of scientific knowledge. It is a good help if you have a background in biology. However, protection is inseparable from social awareness, economic development and social structure. Studying sociology, communication, and organizational management are all possible directions. Therefore, when choosing an NGO, the best thing is that the organization’s personnel composition is diverse and open. The professionalism and excellence of an NGO organization have nothing to do with its reputation (public influence). As for whether I want to give you a long list for you to choose from, I don’t think it’s necessary. You can get the information you need through online searches, social platforms, emails, phone calls, and open events. NGO staff will be happy to help you find your answers. In addition, English is still very important. It doesn’t matter whether you have to become an international wildlife protector. Wildlife protection is both regional and international. In a persistent and persistent NGO, you will definitely find an international perspective and local work. Way. Finally, engaging in wildlife protection requires you to withstand setbacks, gain understanding from your family, and gain self-recognition. I hope you persevere.
