    Perfect Hoodie for a Ninja!

  2. Coen Jacobs

    I have lots of hoodies, but none is as cool as this one!

  3. Dan

    I love hoodies, and ninjas, so what could be better than a ninja hoodie? Not much, if you ask me!

  4. Ryan

    This is the most bombastic hoodie in this shop, it’s soft and has the sly WooThemes ninja on it. Why wouldn’t you buy this?

  5. Maria

    This only gets 1 star because I don’t have this yet. I want it now!

Nature Based Solutions in MENA and SEA: Coastal Applications

BioConserve was a co-author on a white paper produced on coastal Nature-based solutions in the MENA and SEA regions. Coastal ecosystems were focused on, including the ability for mangrove, seagrass, coral and oyster reef ecosystems to provide climate adaptation and resiliency in addition to ecological enhancement of an area.

Surveys, Analysis & Assessment

Habitat Restoration Project in Ras al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary

BioConserve has been appointed to carry out baseline surveys for terrestrial ecology and intertidal ecology components within the Ras al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary (RAKWS). This includes mangrove surveys, avifauna surveys, terrestrial ecology and flora surveying, bat monitoring, diurnal and nocturnal surveying, invertebrate surveying, mudskipper surveying, as well as general terrestrial ecological surveying to establish habitat coverage and wildlife communities present.

The proposed project will see the environmental rehabilitation and enhancement of the site to better support migratory bird populations that originally triggered the designation of the site as an important Ramsar wetland for migratory and wintering birds. BioConserve will carry out baseline surveys to establish the current existing conditions at the site prior to the start of major works on site. Further, BioConserve will provide implementation support throughout the construction phase, ensuring that on-site personnel are effectively trained and adhere to the Construction Environmental Control Plan and associated sub-management plans which are linked to biodiversity and ecological elements.

Emirates Steel Arkan - Low Carbon Steel Hub in Abu Dhabi, UAE

BioConserve undertook Avifauna Surveys for a proposed Low Carbon Steel Hub project in an industrial area in Abu Dhabi. The activities for the development of the project included maintenance dredging throughout certain areas of the adjacent water channel, an area that had previously been dredged. The Avifauna Surveys were required as part of the ecological survey to inform the assessment of baseline and to be included as part of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA), in accordance with EAD requirements. Although the majority of the project activities were planned to take place on the mainland and the canal off the shore, the study area also included an island off the shore of the mainland, directly opposite the proposed project site. Avifauna surveying included Vantage Point surveys using binoculars and a digital camera with a telephoto lens.

Over a decade ago, when I first moved to the Middle East, I struggled to find my place as an ecologist in the then-emerging markets of the GCC. Opportunities for actual biodiversity work were few and far between: a handful of conservation NGOs; a few government positions; a couple academic institutions running wildlife research projects.
In 2020, I recognized that there had been a shift in global and regional recognition of the importance of ecosystem conservation for the longevity not only of the biodiversity itself, but for society as a whole – which was reflected in the increased scrutiny around ecological impact and risk, and the cross-sector requirements for science-based yet practical biodiversity management solutions. Foreseeing this rise in demand, I began providing consulting and advisory services to trusted clients on a small scale, undertaking field surveys, reporting, and developing deliverables in alignment with IFC PS6. I opened official operations under the trade name, “Biosphere Conservation (BioConserve) Consulting Services”, but the one and only employee was myself.
By 2021, I had grown a roster of repeat clients, and the amount of work was more than one person could handle. A chance encounter brought Sheril, Principal Ecologist, and myself together at just the right time- and BioConserve as a true business was born.
We are now a thriving enterprise with a core team of incredibly skilled ecologists, each of us with several fields of specialization. We live, breathe, talk biodiversity – birds, bats, bugs; plants, wildlife, flowers, trees- you name it- we know it. Grounded in science, optimism, and integrity, we’re out to prove that a company can be impactful and successful, while still focusing on the people that make the business possible.
Five years in, and I am in awe at what has been achieved.
Here’s to the next five, and many more to follow.
