About Kathleen Reaugh Flower

I am a global conservation science leader with 20+ years of experience integrating biodiversity science into policy, planning, and investment strategies across Africa, Asia, and the Americas. With a Ph.D. in Marine Ecology, a track record leading interdisciplinary technical and scientific teams, and experience securing conservation funding from public and private donors, I specialize in bridging science, strategy, and practice to deliver measurable biodiversity outcomes through evidence-informed decision making. I excel in strategic planning, science communication, project oversight, team leadership, and capacity development. My leadership and mentorship approach aims to ensure that all voices are heard, represented, and valued in our work. My work emphasizes adaptive management, biodiversity monitoring, nature-positive finance, and partnership development—including with USAID, Conservation International, World Wildlife Fund, the Wildlife Conservation Society, and The Nature Conservancy.
