SPEAKER & TOPIC: Tonight's speaker is Joe Wasilewski. Joe is a Wildlife Expert currently working for Jadora International LLC as Vice-President of biodiversity. Joe will be presenting Jadora's involvement in a REDD+ project in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). The project is located in a former logging concession of 345,000 hectares and Joe is responsible for measuring, understanding  and developing conservation measures for the biodiversity within the concession.

Joe is dedicated to conserving endangered wildlife worldwide. In order to do so, it is necessary to understand the complicated cohesion between flora and fauna along the with the needs for local sustainability. Any proposed conservation project can only proceed with support from the local people. Joe has consulted with the motion picture industry and several national television shows including pirates of the Caribbean II and III, and CSI Miami.
