Jason Peters

Project Co-ordinator. Jason has been fascinated by wildlife ever since growing up on a farm in Sussex, England. Very early on he developed a deep respect for all that was around him but upon exploring further and further afield soon discovered that the natural world was in deep trouble. He studied biological sciences at university in London and then became involved in various conservation projects around the world, including working in the rain forests of Northern Vietnam and with cheetah in Southern Africa. He then went on to study wildlife film-making in Cape Town and has since worked mainly as a researcher.

Jason is passionate about finding solutions to conservation and development issues, believing that visual media is the most effective tool for prompting change, and so is thrilled to be involved in this initiative to catalogue films that have already made a difference in the hope of inspiring others to do the same!

Jason is also Editor of Wildlife Film News, Producer of www.wildlife-film.com.
