#LocalCommunities
New on @bsky.app!
I am based in #Mongolia where I work with @goviinkhulan.bsky.social to protect the threatened #Khulan, Gobi #wildlife and the unique Gobi Desert #ecosystem, together with #localcommunities.
Happy to #connect with anyone with a #passion for wildlife, nature and conservation!

Collaboration is the key to supporting local communities. This is a great list of Ottawa non-profits and advocacy groups. But if you notice anyone missing, let's get them on the list :)

Have any Ottawa non-profits or advocacy groups joined BlueSky since I made this starter pack?

I’m travelling today. Lots of time to make updates.
