Did you see a flash of a fin, or was it just the waves?

Whales, dolphins, porpoises, and dugongs aren’t just visitors to Malaysia, they are our neighbors, living in our waters since time immemorial. Yet, as our world changes, these “everyday Malaysians” are struggling to stay afloat.

It isn’t a choice between us or them. Protecting these majestic creatures means protecting the very ecosystems that sustain our own lives. Join us for an eye-opening session with Dr. Louisa Ponnampalam, co-founder of MareCet, as we explore how we can move from being foes to friends of the sea.

Let’s learn how to share our waters and protect our collective future.
