That’s why we’re very excited to share with you Governor Brown’s most recent nomination to the Commission: Dr. Kathayoon Khalil!
Dr. Khalil brings more than a decade working on conservation education and research at the Oregon Zoo and other institutions. She has a masters in environmental science from Yale and PhD in environmental education from Stanford. Her primary focus has been on the human dimensions of conservation including environmental education and pro-environmental behavior.
Dr. Khalil has a lot of experience turning scientific recommendations into practical policy and on-the-ground solutions. We believe her unique experience with wildlife conservation research and implementation, strategic planning, and community collaboration will make her an asset on the Commission.
Look Up Your State Senator Here!
Please take a few minutes out of your day to contact your State Senator to let them know you support Dr. Khalil’s candidacy for the ODFW Commission. Call and leave a brief message of support or send a short email. Messages do not have to be long or detailed, but it is critical that senators hear from their constituents that they want this nomination moved forward.
