The fourth Frankfurt Spring School has officially started

This Monday, 31 early career conservationists from 15 different countries gathered in Frankfurt at the Goethe University for the start of a busy and instructive four weeks on conservation project management. Their first day provided a jam-packed introduction to the Spring School, the Spring School‘s partners, the city of Frankfurt and ended with a lovely evening at the KfW Villa 102 hosted by the KfW Foundation. Watch below to see what they got up to!

Also, previous Spring School participants would like to give this year ‘s group of budding conservation leaders some advice for the next four weeks:
