Ignasi Parera Ferrer

I hold a degree in Forest and Natural Environment Management from ISMAB and currently participate in a habitat monitoring and sampling project across Catalonia. The main goal is to assess the conservation status of ecosystems and build a solid database that allows long-term ecological monitoring. This work is essential to detect ecological changes, identify threats, and support environmental policies informed by scientific evidence.

Through my work, I contribute to improving the management and conservation of the country’s natural heritage, supporting evidence-based decision-making at both environmental and social levels. Moreover, this type of research is vital for addressing global challenges such as biodiversity loss and climate change through local and applied knowledge.

Since childhood, I’ve had a deep passion for nature, especially the mountains. I enjoy observing, understanding, and taking care of natural spaces. In my free time, I try to stay connected with nature—whether by hiking, exploring new landscapes, or simply enjoying the forest.
