Nothing Found

An activist for nature, Sofia has, for over 15 years, led the first Rewilding effort in South America with the restoration of the Esteros del Iberá, the largest wetlands in Argentina. She is a biologist and has spent more than 30 years designing strategies for the creation of protected areas in our country, with a unique capacity to envision projects on a large scale and for the long term. She worked for national and regional conservation non-profits and in the National Park Service administration before joining the team of Rewilding Argentina as its leader in 2005.

Laura is a public accountant with a degree in business administration. She worked for 13 years for PricewaterhouseCoopers, where she was promoted to Audit Manager. In 2002, she joined Tompkins Conservation as the financial manager and administrator for the on-going projects of the Tompkins family in Argentina and of the Conservation Land Trust Argentina (CLTA), a subsidiary of Conservation Land Trust, the non-profit organization founded by Douglas Tompkins. Inspired by the conservation projects being carried out by CLTA, she joined Rewilding Argentina in 2010 in order to be more actively involved in projects related to the creation and development of protected areas.

Sebastián obtained a degree in Biology from La Plata National University (Universidad Nacional de La Plata), Argentina, and a Master’s degree in Natural Protected Areas from the Autonomous University of Madrid (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid), Spain. He admires the Rewilding revolution that is taking place in the conservation world, and he believes that Argentina must widely implement this strategy to restore its natural areas, which are mostly devoid of wildlife. Since he is 13 years old, he participates in environmentalist organizations, and his work has always been related to nature conservation, especially in the Directorate of Natural Protected Areas of the Province of Neuquén. Since 2015, he serves as Rewilding Argentina’s Conservation Director, where he is in charge of the reintroduction of species and environmental restoration that we carry out in our projects.

Luli studied chemical engineering in Buenos Aires and environmental engineering in Madrid, where she then served as a consultant for a private forest agency. In 2017, she began to work for Rewilding Argentina and was one of the founders of the marine conservation program which had the objective of protecting at least 10% of the Argentine Sea. With her matchless charisma, she has been the Director of Strategic Development for our organization since 2018, traveling the world to present our projects.
