Meeting with UK Galapagos Conservation Trust CEO
CNH Tours has been on the road recently, passing through London earlier this month. We took advantage of our visit to invite Ian Dunn, CEO of the Galapagos Conservation Trust (GCT), for lunch at a Spanish tapas restaurant on Great Portland Street. It was a sunny day, and Ian joined us with his colleague, Leah Jones for a light meal and a great conversation.
The GCT has been around for many years, certainly well before we first arrived in Galapagos, back in 1998. It helps raise funds for conservation work in the islands, focusing on science, education and culture. The GCT is quite a dynamic organization, also organizing events in the UK and fund-raising cruises in the islands.
Our lunch meeting was very interesting - and we are following-up with some mutual cooperation on improvements to information sharing with each other, and with CNH Tours guests.
GCT runs a monthly newsletter - no better way than to keep informed about what's going on in the islands. For more information, see: http://galapagosconservation.org.uk/get-involved/newsletter/
