This seminar is part of the Cambridge Conservation Initiative (CCI) Freshwater Biodiversity Day. It will be a hybrid event, in-person in the Main Seminar Room in the David Attenborough Building, Cambridge and online via Zoom.
The seminar will be given by Mike Baltzer and Georgie Bull of SHOAL. It will cover SHOAL’s 1,000 Fishes: their flagship initiative to accelerate action for freshwater species, spearheaded by action for the world’s most threatened fishes. This global collaborative, given the right investment and intensity of support, will lift freshwater fishes and potentially thousands of other neglected freshwater species to a new elevated platform of conservation attention and in doing so greatly enhance freshwater conservation efforts globally.
