In a significant leadership transition, Conservation International has announced the appointment of Dr. Sebastian Troëng as its new CEO and Lisa Jackson as the Interim Chairman of the Board. This change marks a renewed commitment to global conservation efforts, focusing on fostering a world where nature is appreciated and protected.
Dr. Sebastian Troëng brings over 30 years of experience in global conservation to his new role. Having held various leadership positions within Conservation International for nearly two decades, he has played an integral part in strengthening the organization's influence in oceans, forests, and sustainable development across the globe. His expertise also encompasses vital areas such as climate solutions and biodiversity protection.
Taking over from Dr. Daniela Raik, who successfully guided the organization during a pivotal transition, Dr. Troëng expresses excitement about returning to the forefront of conservation efforts. "There is no better way to impact both nature and people than through this organization," he stated passionately, reaffirming his commitment to enhancing the organization's role in preserving our planet's natural resources.
Interim Chairman Lisa Jackson, formerly the Administrator of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Vice President of Environmental, Policy and Social Initiatives at Apple, joins Conservation International's Board in a period that demands urgent action for environmental sustainability. Known for her leadership and advocacy in environmental protection, Jackson aims to steer the organization during this transitional phase with a focus on priority initiatives and innovative solutions that support both communities and ecosystems.
The outgoing chairman, Robert J. Fisher, reflected on his role, emphasizing the privilege it was to lead such a critical mission. He expressed confidence in the new leadership team, stating, "The future of Conservation International lies in extraordinarily capable hands." This transition signals a renewed optimism for the organization, which aims to accelerate its impact on nature conservation at an unprecedented speed necessary to meet today’s challenges.
Under Raik's interim leadership, Conservation International achieved noteworthy advancements in conservation outcomes, amplifying its voice in critical global policy discussions while securing significant funding to advance its mission. Including expanded protection for land and marine areas, enhanced climate initiatives, and forging robust partnerships across various sectors.
Both Jackson and Troëng are praised for their proven leadership, innovation, and determination to address pressing environmental challenges. Their combined experience is expected to further extend Conservation International's global influence while remaining true to its core values.
