Vote in the SCB Oceania Section Election!

[SCB Brisbane-UQ Chapter]

Hi Everyone,

I hope you are well and surviving working from home!

It's time to cast your vote in the SCB Oceania Section Board election! As some of you know, Micha is nominating herself for the 'Member-at-Large' position. She was the President (2017-18) and Vice President (2018-19) of our Society and has recently completed her PhD. Here is her bio:

"Micha Jackson

Board Position: Member-at-Large

I am a highly motivated conservation practitioner passionate about achieving improved environmental outcomes through evidence-based research. I have engaged in wildlife research and monitoring in Australia and overseas for more than a decade. I have extensive experience in science communication in the formal academic sphere and through products aimed at research end users, project collaborators, communities and the public. I have been a member of SCB since 2012, and I served as President (two years) and Vice President (one year) of the SCB UQ Brisbane chapter from 2016-2019 while completing my doctoral degree on shorebird conservation. In 2019 I joined the SCB Global Chapters Committee as one of the Events Grants Coordinators. I have attended multiple SCB conferences, most recently the 2018 SCB Oceania Conference in Wellington, New Zealand, where I organised a symposium, presented my research in an oral presentation, and presented a poster about the SCB UQ Brisbane chapter. I am eager to diversify my involvement in SCB by serving in more wide- ranging roles, and feel I would be very well placed to further strengthen relationships and communication between SCB global, SCB Oceania and SCB local chapters."
