Profiles from the Peninsula is a series dedicated to spotlighting the partners who make up the Baja Working Group, and their projects. Each week, we will bring you a new profile in the form of a blog like this one. More information about the working group can be found here.
Dr. John Randall is a Lead Scientist at The Nature Conservancy. As part of his conservation work, he helped lead the 10-year update of the Las Californias Binational Conservation Initiative. Dr. Randall’s work also focuses on conservation and management of Pacific Islands of California and Baja California, and focuses on cross-border connectivity from the Pacific to the Yuha Desert.
For John, cross-border resilience means, “connectivity for wildlife movement across the border and within both Baja California and southern California by means of fostering discussions, workgroups, and actions to restore and protect cross-border connectivity.”
The Baja Working Group convenes local and international scientists, resource managers, conservation groups, educators, philanthropists, and other stakeholders to advance collaborative efforts that build resilience in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and in human communities. Learn more here.
