Sail & Whale conference with BioBlau

Last thursday (2/3/2017) we were at the University of Valencia sharing our project with all the students who have attended to the conference.

We are very grateful to Bioblau, Group d’estudiants de Biologia Marina, for the invitation to participate in their cycle of conferences Parlem del Mar, and for the excellent organization of the event.

Thanks as well to all the people who have come to share time, experiences and questions with us. We’ve got a great feedback to keep on working and improving Sail & Whale.

It has been a real pleasure to spend some time with you all!

Sail & Whale on the radio!

Sail & Whale at “La mirada del delfín viajero”

Another small step to divulgate our project. Thanks to PROMAR, a spanish non-profit organization focused on the defense and protection of marine fauna, we have recently take part on a radio program held by Candil Radio, an Andalusian local radio. The program, called “La mirada del delfín viajero”, addresses marine topics every week to raise awareness among its audience.

You can listen hereafter the complete radio program in spanish where we talk about Sail & Whale and its first steps:

Sail & Whale at the first Symposium of Biodiversity…

 

SW-Conserbio 2016

Sail & Whale has been recently presented in the first Symposium on Biodiversity and Nature Conservation held in the University of Almería (Spain) last September. This congress aims to disseminate scientific knowledge about the protection and conservation of species and ecosystems, as well as to strongly promote and endorse the collaboration between science and society.

The oral presentation has been a total success! It was awarded as the best presentation within the category of “Biodiversity and Marine Conservation: Challenges for the Global Ecological Balance”. But the best price was the excellent feedback from the audience, lots of questions, ideas and suggestions to keep on improving the project. We would like to warmly thank all the people who showed their interest, which undoubtedly makes this project grow stronger.
