Sian Evans is a Instructor at Florida International University. They possess expertise in strategic planning, research, public speaking, ecology, teaching and 1 more skills. Colleagues describe them as "A few years ago Dr. Sian Evans contacted me at the Peace Education Foundation. She hoped that we might collaborate on a local grant for integrating social skills development into a summer program based at the DuMond Conservancy for Primates and Tropical Forests. I met her at the site and saw firsthand her knowledge of and passion for her work with primates, and for her eagerness to produce this innovative training, especially with children who otherwise might never see some of these things (and certainly wouldn't likely have the benefit of her expertise). • Certainly I'd have loved to support this venture. It's original, it's unique, it's an opportunity that could benefit children in so many ways. And I regret that the funding source didn't share our enthusiasm. Sian's commitment to her work and her community comes through very clearly. She has an open mind in how to help young people and promote the many facets of natural sciences, exposing them to novel experiences that could broaden their horizons significantly. I gladly and vigorously recommend her to anyone interested in helping south Florida youth expand their social skills AND their real-world scientific frontiers— zoology, botany, ecology, and much more, all in one splendid site."
