Citizen Science Show#124 - From Campus Corridors to Coastal Wetlands: Steering Earthwatch Australia Through Change with Fiona Sutton WilsonAfter more than two decades in the university sector, Fiona Sutton Wilson realised that middle management no longer fulfilled her desire to make a tangible difference. Surrounded by policy and research, she felt drawn toward work that would more directly benefit the environment. A turning point came during a week-long bush retreat with a group of women, where the quiet of nature reawakened her childhood love of the natural world—memories of exploring with her botanist father and discovering native orchids resurfaced, reigniting her environmental passion.More Informationhttps://earthwatch.org.au/ht...
