Jon a. Juárez

Country: Germany 🇩🇪

A biologist on paper but a photographer at heart, Jon A. Juárez works to get people closer to nature and raise awareness about climate change and its risks.

He has a great interest in human and conservation stories. As both a photographer and filmmaker, he regularly collaborates with the Leibniz Institute for Zoo and Wildlife Research (IZW) and is involved in projects like the BioRescue and the GAIA initiative. His work extends to rewilding and conservation initiatives, where he captures compelling narratives through both still and moving images.

Since 2016, he has also led several projects involving refugee children in Berlin. A full member of Germany’s Society for Nature Photographers (GDT), he has displayed his work at several exhibitions in Germany and Spain, including at the Zeiss Major Planetarium in Berlin. His pictures have been awarded both in Germany and internationally.
