It was great to meet up with colleagues from @AscensionMPA and Tristan da Cunha. Lots of productive chat and collaboration between islands. All 3 sister islands presented at @IMCC2024 and showcased how small islands with little resources can still achieve big things 🌊🐡
It was great to participate @IMCC2024! Big thanks to representatives from Tristan Da Cunha, @sthelenampa, @AscensionMPA, @CefasGovUK and @The_MMO who demonstrated how #UKOTs are leading the way in marine conservation through #MarineScience and community engagement. 🌎 💪 #IMCC7
A genuinely empowering plenary this morning at #IMCC7. Angelo Villagomez shed light on MPA quality and the lack of collaboration with indigenous communities. It did highlight that St Helena is in a very different place to the rest of the world, and for that we are proud 🇸🇭
Liz Clingham @sthelenampa is presenting @IMCC2024 on “Strengthening governance to ensure a small island has a big future” on day six #IMCC7 #UKOT
I really enjoyed (secretly relieved the anxiety is over) presenting today at #IMCC7. I spoke about some fisher led science programmes on St Helena and provided some data on tuna tagging projects. All linking in with empowering the local community to help protect their MPA!
1/3 At 4.45pm (GMT+2), today Wednesday 16th October, our Marine and Fisheries Conservation Officer, Kirsty Jones, will be delivering her presentation on St Helena’s MPA and the journey of discovery for the community in realising the value of its marine environment.
Kirsty Jones @sthelenampa is presenting the paper @IMCC72024: “St Helena’s Marine Protected Area: A community realising the value of its marine environment through a journey of discovery.” #IMCC7 #UKOT
A great first day of presentations at @IMCC2024 Highlights include Adam Riggs presenting on his year placement on St Helena with @SHnationaltrust and Janine Laverello from Tristan da Cunha talking about their MPZ! #IMCC7 #Marineconservation
1/3 This evening at 6pm (GMT+2), our MPA representatives at IMCC7 in South Africa, will be staring off their week long forum with a poster presentation from Senior Marine and Fisheries Conservation Assistant, Leeann Henry. 🐟#sthelenampa #smallislandBIGFUTURE #IMCC7🐠
Leanne Henry's (@sthelenagov) poster presentation will explore how St Helena is managing the effects of human impacts on their marine environment. Today @IMCC2024 #UKOT #IMCC7
Currently getting ready to attend @IMCC2024 in Cape Town where I will be presenting on St Helena's community and their involvement with science efforts on island! Looking forward to delving deep and learning lots 🌊
1/3 At the International Marine Conservation Congress, scientists and practitioners unite to exchange research, tools, and insights that enhance our grasp of marine science and policy. The central theme of IMCCs revolves around Making Marine Science Matter. @SCBMarine @IMCC2024
🎉 Just released: Blue Belt Programme Annual Update 2023/24! 🌊 We highlight the incredible achievements and impact of the #UKOTs in protecting and sustainably managing over 4.4 million km² of marine environment. 🌍🐟 ▶️ Be inspired, read more: bit.ly/3AVkEwA

New paper published! 📝 Great to work with @MISSIONATLANTIC and @peldiloc partners in a study comparing reef fish community structure at Mid-Atlantic Ridge islands! 🇸🇭🇧🇷🇦🇨 Check it out here: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…
Check our new study that compares reef fish community structure of the three islands on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge: St. Paul's Rocks, Ascension Island, and St. Helena. doi.org/10.1016/j.mare…
A little video I made for our oceanographic work on St Helena! 🌊🔬🌡️
The Marine and Fisheries Conservation section recently completed an oceanographic survey, a quarterly programme assessing the condition of our marine environment. To learn more about this project, read the infographic and watch the video below! #sthelenampa #smallislandBIGFUTURE
Today I presented at the 53rd British Islands And Mediterranean Region Conference which is currently being hosted on #StHelena 🇸🇭 I spoke about St Helena's experience working on innovative and collaborative methods to ensure the MPA is managed sustainably now and in the future.
