Jasvic Lye

Jasvic's journey in wildlife conservation and education started when she embarked on an art project documenting wild animals that have died from human activities in Singapore. While working on the project, entitled Death by Man, she actively involved herself in volunteering and working with ACRES as a means to better understand the interactions between people and animals, and how we can build a better relationship with our wildlife. From wildlife rescue to monkey guarding and wildlife management, her experiences have led her to become the Campaign Manager of the Our Wild Neighbours (OWN) initiative - an islandwide, multi-stakeholder campaign that promotes human-wildlife coexistence.
