Robin Moore
Global Wildlife Conservation Director of Communications
Robin Moore is a Scottish-born photographer with National Geographic Creative, a Senior Fellow of the International League of Conservation Photographers and Communications Director with Global Wildlife Conservation.
Robin gained his PhD in biodiversity conservation from the University of Kent before swapping calipers for camera and using photography and visual storytelling as a powerful tool for conservation.
In 2010 Robin spearheaded the innovative 'Search for Lost Frogs' which dispatched 33 teams in 20 counties to find some of the world’s missing amphibians. The campaign resulted in 15 rediscoveries and culminated in the critically acclaimed 'In Search of Lost Frogs'. Last year Robin launched the 'Search for Lost Species' with Global Wildlife Conservation.
In 2012 Robin launched 'Frame of Mind' to connect youth in Haiti to connect with their natural and cultural worlds through photography and visual storytelling, and in 2014 he joined local partners in Jamaica to shine the spotlight on threats to the country’s largest protected area. Through a combination of visual storytelling and guerilla tactics, pressure applied to the government of Jamaica paid off when the Prime Minister announced that the project had been abandoned. One of Robin’s images of hatchling Jamaican iguanas – one of the rarest lizards in the world – cradled in the hands of a local researcher was recognized as a Finalist in the Photojournalism category of the Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2017.
