Dear Marmam community, it is with pleasure that our organizing team is announcing the opening for registration to attend the 9th workshop “Communicating marine mammal science to the general public” within the framework of the 34th European Cetacean Society annual conference. Synthetic information on the workshop could be found at the link: https://www.europeancetaceansociety.eu/conference/workshops-ecs2023 This year ECS rules on workshops imply the payment of 30 € per person to register, however, we are making efforts to raise some funds in order to lower such price or eventually include in this charge a coffee break and light lunch, not included in the workshop registration fee, as for ECS rules. We will update all the attendants on that. For any additional details or to register please contact us: Luigi Bundone, luigibundone@tiscali.it or luigi.budone@unive.it (Archipelagos - ambiente e sviluppo, Italia; Ca’ Foscari University of Venice) Gema Hernandez-Milian, ghmilian@googlemail.com or gema.hernandez@ieo.csic.es (Archipelagos - ambiente e sviluppo, Italia; Centre Oceanographic Institute, IEO-CSIC) Volker Smit, smit@m-e-e-r.de (M.E.E.R.)
