Comment(s)
Twice I was General Director of an NGO dedicated to the investigation and conservation of the Archipielago Los Roques National Park, located more than 70 miles from the coast. As General Director, I had to make all the decisions of this institution and handle administrative and logistical aspects of the station, develop and execute research and conservation project of that institution as well as support projects of other institutions (Universities). The difficulties of managing a station isolated from the main development centers allowed me to develop tools to solve problems and to manage financing.
