Dr. Rachel T. Graham

@ejeancarroll Congratulations on so splendidly winning your case. Just a thought, but some of the funds you wish to put to a good cause that DT hates could go to support shark conservation led by women, notably @maralliance!

@juliepackard @PackardFdn Preach it sistah. Exactly what we do @MarAlliance . Community engagement and moving the far too tight circle of chairs to involve local voices in higher level discussions and decision making requires forging long-term trust based relationships and nurturing local leadership.

The ocean faces immense challenges. To solve them, we must engage with communities that depend most on a healthy ocean so they have a seat at the table and a voice in the process. That's the approach @PackardFdn is taking. #equity" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">linkedin.com/pulse/restore-… #EnvironmentalJustice

@AKurmanaev @MeridithKohut Good story, veey complex, many actors. So much at stake. Plz note it's "coral" not "corral".

An innovative financial model seeks to help small or poor nations escape the interrelated scourges of high debt & climate change by giving them financial incentives to invest in conservation. With amazing photos by @MeridithKohut. nytimes.com/2022/11/07/wor…

@wudanyan Yep. Very frustrating. Marine science, conservation and education work heavily disrupted in Belize, Honduras and Panama.

@SteveBackshall @CanterburyCCUni @VenomTech @DrCarolTrim Well done! Big accomplishment.

I’m not a natural scientist. At school I struggled with maths, and still now find statistics and chemistry fiendishly hard. It is then my proudest achievement to gain my MSc in Bioscience. @canterburyccuni thanks to my dear friends @venomtech @DrCarolTrim

@Fishguy_FHL @FABBLab Looks great! Thanks so much for your purchase and support of the Guna fishing communities.

That feeling when you are headed out to trawl and your new mola masks from MarAlliance have arrived. Manta mask!!!

@_KMETCALFE @Economist_WOI @JointSDGFund @UN_SDG @SDGaction @saveourseas @HeatherKoldewey @BrendanGodley @Bluemarinef @BlueActionFund @IUCNShark Suggest you look at a larger scale and integrate the work into a sizable grant from the UK Darwin or the EU to characterize and restore small scale fisheries there,and integrate MSc and PhD. Also Chevening/British Council, IRD/IFREMER and the Global Shark Fund for funding.

@MarAlliance Here is Dr. Louisa Ponampalam with her manta mola mask we shipped all the way to Malaysia.

😍 Thank you for sharing! The link to order your own 'face art' is in the replies. There are several different marine animals to choose from and proceeds go to the Kuna community, who have been heavily affected by the pandemic.

@USMPhillipsLab @MarAlliance @SharksAndRaysAu @CoastalElasmos @sawfishconserv @Africas_Sawfish @spottedcatshark @AMFearing @pollylovesharks @dalyengellab Thanks for purchasing and supporting, much appreciated. We have already paid the women, sent food, PPE and fishing gear to the communities with the proceeds to date.

Stunning #sawfish mask, hand-stitched by the Kuna women in #Panama, thanks to their partners @MarAlliance! All proceeds from mask sales support these women & their communities. Several designs available, but naturally I choose sawfish!

@Three_Ninjas @MarAlliance Scalloped hammerhead (Sphyrna lewini)

@MarAlliance Wow, what species are they?

It's that time of year again! The baby hammerheads are moving into the nurseries of Cabo Verde in search of food. Our fisher associate Ze sent us this video. #cuteoff

@alihirola Where was this? Niger?

This shocked me; with nearly two decades of field experience in the African Savannah, I have never seen brutal scene like this before and guess what “from our gentle giants and over mates...”

@CSULBsharklab Super to see our @MarAlliance deep water BRUV design is working for you guys!

@mgoldst Wish I had a $10 for every time I was told this

@SteveBackshall @jay18170051 Hire a local bilingual person

@jay18170051 My Spanish is terrible, and I have a five week exped there - I want to be able to talk properly with the locals!!!

Help! Looking for a crash course in Spanish; Amazon has dozens... any recommendations?!

Woohoo, thanks @StephenAtHome for highlighting our discovery! twitter.com/StephenAtHome/…

@Mojoshark The value alive as suggested by the axiom is far more than derived from ecotourism alone. It integrates ecosystem value, cultural value and existence value. When combined with the non-consumptive economic value of ecotourism, this is indeed a powerful argument for live sharks.

This Congress doesn’t work for working families. It works for corporate lobbyists & campaign donors in backroom deals & 1:30 AM votes. This corruption is hollowing out America’s middle class & tearing down our democracy.

@baumlab @RySciDean Yup.

Ray sex. Woohoo! twitter.com/maralliance/st…
