Claire Thompson

"I thoroughly enjoyed my internship at WLT and feel extremely lucky to have had such a great opportunity. Being a WLT intern is an opportunity to make the most of. Rarely can you feel like you are contributing valuable work to an organisation, without being ultimately responsible for anything. The internship gave me a good insight into working for conservation in the context of an office environment, as opposed to in the field - and confirmed that I wanted to continue on my career path towards conservation project management."
Where is Claire now?
Claire continued to work at the World Land Trust, as Conservation Development Assistant for 2 years before being offered a position at BirdLife International as Conservation Programme Support Officer in October 2011.
