Aoife de Bhal

RSPB

I am a passionate advocate for nature from Belfast. After completing a degree in Human Sciences from the University of Oxford, I returned to the North of Ireland to work in the environmental charity sector. I have previously worked for Ulster Wildlife and KNIB, and I am currently the warden for the RSPB’s Belfast Harbour Reserves. A native Irish speaker, I am particularly interested in the way in which language, folklore and stories relate to conservation, and leads bilingual nature events through Dúchas agus Dúlra. As part of the Wild Belfast collective, I am also an advocate for active travel and green cities.
