Born and raised in Egypt, Nadine started building a strong connection to nature and protected areas through her love for the Red Sea. She works at the Global Protected Areas Programme at IUCN, advancing the IUCN Green List of Protected and Conserved Areas by working on implementation with a particular focus on the West Asia region; leading on communications and accompanying the scaling up process for the IUCN Green List. She volunteers with the Red Sea Project as a guest contributor to the blog and support in protected areas related content.

Nadine graduated recently from the University of Geneva with a Master’s degree in Standardization, Social Regulation and Sustainable Development; and has worked in Europe, North America, and the Middle East in both private and non-profit sectors.
