Join us to hear The Ocean Foundation's Program Manager, Katie Thompson, discuss her work on the Caribbean Marine Research and Conservation Initiative. Her work encompasses projects that bring countries together to conserve and study shared marine resources, restore marine and coastal habitats, develop national and regional environmental policies, support community-based alternative livelihoods, and protect endangered marine species. Katie specializes in community-based marine conservation strategies and was granted a Fulbright Fellowship in Costa Rica where she taught at the Universidad de Costa Rica and worked with sea turtle conservation. |
