My Life In… Podcast | Episode 2

We’re excited to share the second episode of My Life In…, the podcast from the Centre for Minorities Research (CMR).

In this episode, Prof Nina Laurie, Professor of Human Geography at the University of St Andrews, speaks with Renato Gozzer Wuest, Program Director at Innovations for Ocean Action Foundation, about his professional journey in sustainable fisheries and marine conservation across Latin America.

Together, they explore Renato’s professional journey in sustainable fisheries and marine conservation across Latin America. The conversation reflects on career pathways in international development, the challenges of working with coastal and vulnerable communities, and the importance of building partnerships that balance environmental sustainability with social and economic realities.

Through this discussion, Renato shares insights into the practicalities of working in the field, as well as the broader impact of community-based approaches to resource management and development.

This episode was recorded as part of the My Life In… public seminar series and has been adapted for podcast format to ensure wider accessibility.
