Dear friends of MARMAM, Hope you are doing well and staying healthy in these tough COVID-19 times. While things are getting better in 2021, we are delighted to announce our annual "International Cetacean Symposium" with the theme of "Interaction" will be back on 11 June 2021 (HK time - UTC+8), where invited experts will share their knowledge and experiences with the wider community on a range of topics covered natural and human impacts on cetacean health in multi-disciplinary dimension.
Apart from "2021 International Cetacean Symposium", this year we will also bring TEDx conference alongside by hosting "TEDxCityUHongKong" with the theme as "Sink or Swim" on 12 June 2021 (HK time - UTC+8). It is never an easy task for us, as a researcher, academic or person who works for animal and conservation. The result always highly depends on one's effort. We aim to bring together minds to give talks that are idea-focused, and on a wide range of subjects, to foster learning, inspiration and wonder, and provoke conversations that matter. Two sessions, i.e. morning and evening session will be held in a hybrid mode, with live online broadcast and physical attendance respectively. The venue of the evening session will be in the Hong Kong Maritime Museum, located at the Central Pier 8, Hong Kong. NO registration fee is applied on both events, but all the participants are required to register to the events via the online registration links provided below in advance. Space is limited. Reservations will be accepted in the order they are received. Please register only once. It would be our honoured to have you and your colleague joining us on these 2 days. We hope that the events we put together is as interesting to you, as they are to us!
