Save Children Save Environment
CONSERVATION NETWORK AMBASSADORS It is vital for the long-term success of conservation initiatives that strengthen links between people living in communities and the adjacent game reserves, building a connection between people and nature. This promotes empathy and understanding to develop between these two spheres and importantly, highlight opportunities for interested individuals to engage with wildlife and conservation. The conservation ambassadors do play a critical role in narrowing this gap and supporting conservation efforts. In order to support our aim of conservation we need to encourage children and young people to become familiar with wildlife, organizing practical actions and awakening their need to know more about them. Therefore, the CHILDREN CONSERVATIONISTS PROGRAMME(CCP Foundation) has introduced conservation ambassadors who will be stationed in different parts of the world to add their voice on conservation of National Parks and Game Reserves. Roles of Conservation Network Ambassadors.
- Spread the conservation message.
- Mobilize the public to join CCP conservation efforts.
- Promote the good image of CCP.
- Connect CCP to like minded organizations across the globe.
- Freely participate in ambassadors’ joint activities and any other activities of CCP.
CHILDREN CONSERVATIONISTS PROGRAMME(CCP Foundation) is very privileged to have fantastic Conservation Network Ambassadors .

Carmen Fenner: Conservation Network Ambassador – Lucerne, Switzerland
Fascinated by natural science I became a laboratory assistant in chemistry. I worked first in Crop Protection and later in Animal Health Business. Currently I am employed in Bachem and I work with Peptides. I am a lover of any kind of animals since I was a child. My parents connected with nature and travelled a lot before my brother and I were born. They taught us respect towards any creature and took us several adventure vacations in the US, Europe and Africa. We had the honour to travel in many African countries. The most impressive ones to me are Kenya, Namibia, Botswana and South Africa due to their amazing wildlife. I travelled in almost all continents and admired nature and wildlife. I am also a passionate diver and I spent many hours under waters around the globe to observe the beauty of the underwater world. I also volunteered in nature projects and animal welfare. Wherever I went, I always had to witness the negative impact of humans on nature and wildlife. I am very sad about the systematically destruction of our planet and the killing of animals. I always encourage people to protect mother nature and wildlife for today and the future.
That’s how CCP comes into the game. We need to conserve wilderness and wildlife areas and I believe the best way to do it is to involve the future generations, children, into sustainable conservation. People tend to protect what they love and to groom children to love the environment and animals is the key to educate them to become conservationists rather than poachers. Silvia, a CCP board member encouraged me to become a conservation network ambassador to support and promote the CCP conservation efforts to protect nature and animal lives.
