Abstract

On the 29th of February, the Scottish Marine Animal Stranding Scheme (SMASS) and Whale and Dolphin Conservation (WDC) held the third Marine Forum at the Centre for Health Science in Inverness. A total of 150 people attended the one-day knowledge exchange event, which was packed with fascinating talks, workshops, discussions, and opportunities to network with a wide variety of experts actively involved with marine conservation. The marine forum was once again kindly funded by the SRUC Universities Innovations Fund. Bringing together representatives from a number of research organisations, higher education institutes, NGO’s and marine industries with policy makers and members of the public, this annual event provides a unique opportunity for the exchange of ideas between researchers, citizen scientists and other stakeholder groups concerned with the conservation of the marine environment.
