 To me, nature is a home. I think that will bring lots of energy for me to drive my work. My name is Home Guru. I studied PhD at Griffith University on Environmental Science. Currently, I am working for Barlife International as the Regional Project Manager based in Kuala Lumpur. I have been working with Nature Conservation for the past 30 years and recently with Barlife International looking after the Southeast Asia and Pacific Forest Governance Project. So basically, we link forest science with policy so that the lives of the people can be better and improved. If we don't protect our environment, our livelihoods will be threatened in the long run. For me, conservation for people, of people and by people is very important. My goal is basically to help the people who need help so that they can do better. Everyone has the same human potentials, what they need, education opportunities so that they can stand on their own feet. I come from the Himalayas, from Nepal. I can see since the past 40 years how our mountains are melting very rapidly. Climate change is becoming very evident and really becoming a problem for the local people. So we need adaptation. Science is not just about experiments. It's trying to change the lives of the people through the information, knowledge and the expertise. The impact for climate change, it will have a greater impact on the entire humanity but the greater impact will be the poorest of poor, those who don't have the alternatives. From the sustainable development point of view, the government can make a policy to help the people so that they can adapt and cope with the climate crisis. So for that, we need better science and technology that can help the people.
