WE'RE GOING ONLINE!!!

 

2nd - 5th November 2020 - Worldwide!

 

In light of the global COVID-19 crisis, the ABC organization committee has decided to push forward with a hybrid conference, moving all presentations to an online space with an option of attending in-person in accordance with governmental restrictions. Through this decision, we hope to be more inclusive and to ensure the health and safety of all of our delegates! We are offering the same great opportunities to participate in the African Bioacoustics Community Conference, without the need to travel.

 

From the 2nd of November 2020, we'll be diving straight into 4 days of fascinating talks and poster presentations from scientists and researchers all over the world! This conference has a strong marine mammal focus, as acoustic methodology is a common and important tool in marine mammal research, used for passive acoustic monitoring, behavioural studies, and marine mammal conservation. As a result, there will be many talks concerning bioacoustics research done on marine mammals and a plenary presented by Prof Magnus Wahlberg on hearing in marine species.

 

This year our focus is on even greater representation! We are seeking plenary speakers for the conference who are preferably living and working in Africa. 

Get in touch with us if you want to be considered for a plenary talk.  

Abstract Deadline has been extended to: 15th August 2020

We sincerely hope that you will join us!
