Community Leader Hub

Become a Community Leader

Take matters into your own hands – and lead your community to act for nature.

Change doesn’t happen all at once. It starts small. One action sparks another. A single voice inspires many. That’s the Ripple Effect, and it’s how progress is made.

At Connect with Nature, we share what we’ve learned – tools, knowledge, and hands-on experience – so that passionate individuals aged 18 and above can lead conservation efforts in their own communities.

How it works

  • Upskill yourself with our interactive toolkits and guides, packed with practical tips, fun facts, and insights about the incredible species around us – and how to protect them.
  • Build your confidence to inspire and mobilize your community to create a positive, sustainable future.
  • Start now: Book a free training session with our experts.

Why it matters

We’re running out of time to limit global warming to 1.5°C – with only a few years' worth of carbon budget left. To secure a safer, more sustainable future, we need to act faster, think smarter, and prepare for a changing world.

This is our window to make a difference – and every effort counts

Who can become a Community Leader?

🔥 Anyone aged 18+ who’s ready to lead change.

What you’ll do:

  • Get trained in leadership and communication
  • Organize events that bring people closer to nature
  • Lead conservation and citizen science activities
  • Inspire and mobile your community to build a positive, sustainable future
