Hi there,
I'm Jin from Thailand, currently working as a Tech Consultant for almost a decade. I may not have direct work experience in the field that experts in this community have. But I'm really interested in being part of this community and I believe my technical experience could be somewhat helpful. I have a strong love for nature but I find myself lost when it comes to getting into this space. I'd like to give myself one more chance here to see if I can really contribute and be part of the community that I'm really interested in.
I may have limited availability due to my current work. I'm not looking for any paid work or such. As long as I could help to contribute at least some part of it, then I'm really happy.
Thank you so much!

Hi Tanakrit,
Thanks for your post and welcome!
I am almost in the same boat as you, with some differences.
You might lookup my old post here

As I am trying to figure it out, there is no set framework or template to follow. You can try the following which I plan to try as well:
Finish the Wildlabs courses.
Try the inventory section and check if any company/ org has any overlapping skillset as yours. Contact them with your interest.
Network in any group of interest.
Reach out for volunteering/ citizen science program where you see any.
Associate with other conservation tech people in your area.
There may be more. But these are some I could quickly think about.
