Thanks to the generous support of the Alferd Toepfer Stiftung, EUROPARC annually awards the Alfred Toepfer Scholarship to three young professionals working in Protected Areas.

2023 – winners:

Emmanuelle Déon

Emmanuelle

“My name is Emmanuelle Déon and I work as a Sustainable tourism project manager for Montagne de Reims Regional Park. My role is to engage with stakeholders in developing projects that make the Park more accessible to visitors, mainly through outdoor activities and soft mobilities. Tourism and leisure in Parks are a great way to raise people’s awareness of the beauty of nature, but are also challenging because we have to make sure that these activities don’t result in negative environmental impacts. My scholarship project is to study how Parks can get involved in developing social tourism, for a more inclusive and equitable access to sustainable tourism towards people in risk of poverty. I have a strong interest in the social pillar of sustainability because I believe it is our collective responsibility, as a society, to care for the most vulnerable populations. I aim at visiting several Protected Areas in Europe which have worked on this issue, in order to identify and disseminate best practices within European Parks.”

Hayden Bridgeman

Hayden

“My name is Hayden Bridgeman and I am North Area Ranger for the New Forest National Park Authority. My role is to help visitors and locals learn about what makes the National Park special, how they can enjoy the area, and offer advice about how to help protect it. I have a huge passion for making nature inclusive, and believe that everybody should be able to access green spaces. We, as a society, are increasingly aware of how crucial nature is to good mental health, yet those that need it most are often unable to access it. I am currently leading on a local initiative to enable refugees to access the UK’s National Parks and I want to continue to learn how I can remove more of the barriers this community faces when accessing nature. This scholarship allows me to learn from other professionals about some of the opportunities they have created in their Protected Areas for marginalised communities. I am so grateful for this opportunity and hope my findings will be useful to my European colleagues.”

Lucia Ursu

Lucia

“My name is Lucia Ursu. As an educator in Protected Areas, I have witnessed first-hand the vital role that parks play in promoting sustainable development and preserving our natural heritage. I strongly believe that Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) is crucial in our efforts to create a more sustainable future not just for Protected Areas but for nature in general. Through ESD we can change perspectives and shift attitudes towards more sustainable behaviours. Being an Alfred Toepfer Natural Heritage Scholarship winner brings me a unique opportunity to further develop my skills and knowledge in the field of ESD, enables me to expand my expertise and deepen my understanding of ESD and lets me connect with other professionals working towards a more sustainable future.  I am committed to using the knowledge and skills I gain through the scholarship to make a positive impact in my community and beyond, and to contribute to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals.”

2022 – winners:

Margaux Pierrel

Margaux

Margaux works as a Conservation Ranger for the National Parks and Wildlife Service in Ireland. As part of her responsibilities, she monitors Natura 2000 sites, enforces the national and European wildlife and habitat legislation and engages with the community. Margaux has a strong interest in the concept of “shifting baseline syndrome” (SBS), also referred to as “environmental generational amnesia”. SBS is the situation in which over time, knowledge, or memory is lost about the state of the natural world, because people don’t perceive changes that are taking place. Her scholarship project is to study the effects SBS has on conservation measures in Protected Areas, particularly in terms of species loss, land use changes and rewilding. She aims at visiting places in the UK, the Netherlands, France, and Bulgaria that are aware of these challenges, in order to raise awareness and find solutions.

Espen Quinto-Ashman

Espen

Espen works as the Bird Ringer in charge at Ottenby Bird Observatory. Here, he leads a team of up to 20 volunteers in the daily standardised ringing activities and other biological inventories on the reserve. During his study visits, Espen aims to visit three Protected Areas: Bialowieza National Park and Biebrza National Park in Poland and Maramures National Park in Romania. These areas encompass an array of habitats which are comparable to those that can be found at Ottenby, albeit on a much larger scale. The habitats I’m most interested in studying are: deciduous forest, marshes and meadow pastures. I will study how the management practices in the different parks are suited to the different ecosystems and how well they fulfil their job of protecting biodiversity as well as the key threats to nature in these places. I am particularly interested in how the presence of different species of large herbivores and carnivores, as well as the local hydrology, can affect the health of the habitats.

2014 – winners: Joss Ratcliffe, Milene Matos, Natalya Yakusheva

Joss Ratcliffe is a young researcher based at the Environmental Research Institute in Thurso, Scotland. He is very passionate about science and conservation and has a particular interest in blanket bog habitat. His project at the Environmental Research Institute is concerned with the rate of carbon accumulation and the effects of commercial forest planting on carbon stocks in Scotland´s largest terrestrial Natura2000 sites: the Caithness and Sutherland Peatlands. With the long residence time of bog carbon, measured in millennia rather than centuries, healthy un-drained peatlands truly are one of the most effective ways protected sites can reduce the impact of climate change. Joss will visit a range of wetland sites managed by Metsähallitus Natural Heritage including Koli National Park and sites in Lapland and Ostrobothnia that most resemble open treeless peatlands in Scotland. He plans to visit sites representative of different mire types and restoration techniques as well as observe less intensive forestry practises such as the use of natural regeneration and what affect this has on ecosystem function and biodiversity.

Milene Matos is from Portugal and has been working on biodiversity conservation and invasive plant species control, but she lacks further experience, namely on how to correctly communicate these aspects to the general public, in order to engage it and raise public awareness. She wishes to learn from Parque Regional del Sureste (Spain) team´s experience and replicate the best practices in Portugal. Combining the gathered knowledge and shared experiences with her current activities, she will be able to actively contribute to the conservation of biodiversity of central Portugal, which is one of the richest in Europe. She intends to use the experience to help building a conservation framework tackling invasive species, specifically creating working documents to share with technical staff of the Protected Areas where she collaborates, and organizing training-in-action events.

Natalya Yakusheva currently holds a position of a PhD candidate at Södertörn University, Sweden. Her research is focused on the governance processes of nature conservation policy in the Carpathian countries, namely Poland and Slovakia. In particular she scrutinizes how various policy frameworks are translated and implemented on the ground, what are the implications, potential issues and benefits of Protected Areas for local communities. She would like to continue working on the projects that link research, policy and practice in the field of nature conservation, especially in the mountainous areas. Therefore,  she aims to explore links between political objectives (EU biodiversity strategy) and day-to-day implementation, i.e. management activities of transboundary Protected Areas in the Alps (Prealpi Giulie Natural Park, Italy and Triglav National Park, Slovenia). For this, she will examine the management plans, their implementation, including park’s human and resource capacities, day-to-day activities, key source of financing, as well as encountered obstacles and issues, monitoring and reporting systems and transboundary cooperation. In the final project report the collected materials will be analyzed against existing biodiversity policy framework in order to identify links and gaps.
