Ocean Week CAN Virtual Event: Thalassophile Project: Empowering Wavemakers Through Senses & Science

20 May 2024 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am
Free

Attend Ocean Week Canada’s virtual event featuring Rada, a passionate thalassophile (a lover and friend of the Ocean), Young Ocean Advocate, wavemaker, and explorer from Bulgaria. She is a Marine Science student at the University of Exeter in the UK, focusing her research on ocean bioacoustics, as well as emotional, ecological and ocean literacy. Rada is committed to ensuring universal access to knowledge and resources for ocean conservation, as she believes it strengthens the human-Ocean connection. This ethos inspired her to create the Thalassophile Project — an initiative dedicated to making marine science and ocean literacy accessible, especially to deaf and visually impaired people, through multisensory Blue Education.
