Belinda Kirk
At 26yrs old I led a youth development expedition into the Amazon. I was responsible for a team of over 100 scientists, jungle experts and young people (aged 17-20) studying the birds, caiman and river dolphin. It’s the adventure I am most proud of because a similar expedition I joined at 17yrs old changed my life; it opened my eyes to what I was capable of.
With this expedition I was able to pass this on and started a decade of working with young people in the wilderness
