Interning at the Galiano Conservancy

Ever wondered what it’s like to journey from afar to work on Galiano Island? One of our interns, Frieda Weinert from Germany, has written an article about it and published it in Island Tides.

“With the mentoring of Keith, it was possible to experience the work as an ecologist. Having these unique, hands-on experiences is why my university program wants all the students to get out and work with organizations in Germany or other countries.”

Does this sound like the kind of work you’d like to do? Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.
