Today, we’re joined by Lillian Bosch, who made the leap from tech to conservation, inspired by her journey into motherhood. Lillian advocates for nature-based solutions to climate change and plays a vital role in our new Sámi-led rewilding project!


For those unfamiliar, the Sápmi region spans northern Norway, Sweden, Finland, and the Kola Peninsula in Russia, home to the semi-nomadic Sámi, Indigenous reindeer herders. This vast land is covered by boreal forest, which makes up 62% of the area and is essential to Sámi culture, influencing their food, clothing, and traditions.


However, the decline of the forest and the reindeer population poses a serious threat to the Sámi way of life. The boreal forest is not only a complex ecosystem but also the world's second-largest above-ground carbon sink, containing 22% of the carbon stored on Earth's land.


Conserving Sápmi is crucial for mitigating the impacts of climate change. Tune in to hear Lillian share her inspiring journey and her important partnership with the Sámi community!
