In 2009 a young South African, Steven Segang, traveled outside his country for the first time to work with the International Crane Foundation’s Conservation Education Department at our headquarters in Wisconsin. Throughout the summer Steven was immersed in training to develop his education and public speaking skills while sharing his unique perspective and knowledge from South Africa with our visitors. Steven is now a successful Highveld Field Officer in South Africa, with our partner, the Endangered Wildlife Trust.
