CITES: Hi from Doha!

BY: Oceana Web

Topics: Habitat Protection, Sustainable Fisheries

 

Hi everybody! Sorry for not writing before but with all the travel rush we just didn’t have a minute to do it. We finally made it to Doha! We arrived on Sunday night to attend the CITES meeting. From the taxi cab we could see a scenario of lights and anarchic skyscrapers which made the sky turn in orange color. Not too cozy, actually. However, this feeling changed right when we met our colleagues at the hotel. No matter where we are, we have a bunch of things to do, and we have to make it worth it. For the following weeks we will work relentlessly so that CITES will protect bluefin tuna, sharks and corals!!
