A LETTER FROM THE FOUNDER
Dear Friends,
I have dedicated nearly a decade to the fields of scientific research and biodiversity advocacy, beginning this journey at the tender age of 10. My work includes conducting extensive research on biodiversity and publishing my book, “The Year Earth Changed.” In my spare time, I’ve been a passionate Biodiversity Researcher and storyteller, always seeking to merge my love for nature with my commitment to education and conservation.
The Wildlife Focus recognizes that young people have more than just a voice; they have the power to effect real change. My goal was to provide a platform where young people could leverage their power and passion for the planet.
This belief stems from a personal experience in 2023 in COP28, when I witnessed the profound impact young people can have.
Since launching The Wildlife Focus and meeting the impressive, diverse, and passionate young people, I have been inspired every day. It is my hope that through our conservation projects and educational campaigns, every young person will feel the same level of empowerment. I believe that young people, if given the platform, can save the world, and I believe that The Wildlife Focus can be that platform.
Together, we can make a difference. Thank you for joining us on this journey.
Sincerely,
Erfan Firouzi
Founder & Executive Director
