Joëlle De Weerdt: A PASSION LIKE NO OTHER
Joëlle De Weerdt is a dedicated marine biologist and the founder of the Cetacean Conservation Project of Nicaragua. Her work is crucial as it addresses the lack of scientific data regarding marine mammals in the region, which is increasingly affected by unregulated eco-tourism and potential environmental changes due to large development projects like the proposed Nicaraguan canal.
Joelle looks to continue her passion after pursuing a self-funded PhD through Vrije Universiteit Brussel, focusing on the migratory patterns and ecology of humpback whalesl
