The Darwin Fellow, Mr Said Gutierrez, will undertake postgraduate study through an MSc in
Conservation and Biodiversity at the University of Exeter (UoE). This will compliment the practical
training in field work, data management and analysis that he has received during the Darwin
Initiative Belize large-mammal corridor project. The combination of practical training on the Darwin
project with the rigorous theoretical and analytical training in conservation science offered by the
MSc will ensure that he will return to Belize as a well-trained scientist, ready to work with the
Environmental Research Institute, and to enact the legacy of the Darwin project.
