For this final episode of the year, I chat via Zoom with the amazing Yanamlyn Yana, Papua New Guinea native and Campaign Coordinator for PNG Tribal Foundation. We catch up after 2 years since collaborating, discuss her relentless advocacy against gender based violence and other social issues, traveling out of the country for the first time, being a finalist for the Obama Foundation, political landscapes of the US and PNG, and her own survival from a brutal assault. Lyn’s work and advocacy is a true inspiration and testament to her character and bravery.
On this wild ride Patrick and I discuss the outrageous variety of environmental crimes and his work to prosecute them. Also, the joys of the Philippines, eco-consciousness of the Sri Lankan and Tibetan people, Papua New Guinea tales, Tiger King, surviving the Amazon Rainforest and other exotic snake stories, and so much more and plenty to laugh about.
