Interview with Cat, CEO,MK
What did you do during January?
In January 2025 we closed up the MK office and put our feet up. Sort of! Some headed to the beach, others headed to the bush for some camping and others brushed up on their skills through a variety of courses. I headed back to the Urdaibai Bird Centre, Basque Country, Spain, in the UNESCO Biosphere to learn more about the East Atlantic Flyway, the birds that stopover at Urdaibai on their flight and the old myths that anchored people to caring for their country.
Who did you meet that inspired you?
An amazing trip to the University of Navarre introduced me to Prof Fernando Echarri the Head of Environmental Education. What a meeting! The university is in a park. Yes, 113 hectares of parkland. Plus it is the perfect place for a research centre, University Navarre Musuem, that combines art science and history. It is always so inspiring to meet others and hear of their work. Fernando loved the concept of the Millennium Kids structure with kids being the centrepiece of an organisation.
