Dear MARMAM members On Saturday 6th April the workshop 'Towards a Conservation Strategy for White-beaked Dolphins in the North East Atlantic' will be held as part of the European Cetacean Society conference in Setúbal, Portugal. This will be a closed workshop, with invited participants presenting and discussing the development of recommendations, for informing a possible Conservation Strategy for the species within the North East Atlantic. The workshop is organised and supported by Whale and Dolphin Conservation (WDC), the Agreement on the Conservation of Small Cetaceans of the Baltic and North Seas (ASCOBANS) and the European Cetacean Society (ECS). To ensure as much information on the species is collated for informing the participants of the workshop the organisers wish to ask as many interested parties and individuals with knowledge and experience with white-beaked dolphins to complete the following online questionnaire (survey monkey). Please use the below link, following all instructions provided. The survey should take no longer than 5 minutes, depending on the amount of information you wish to share: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/X86PLY7 The outputs of the online questionnaire and the workshop 'Towards a Conservation Strategy for White-beaked Dolphins in the North East Atlantic', as well as an associated bibliography, will be made available via the workshop proceedings and can be emailed to those expressing an interest to receive a copy (PDF only). The workshop organisers' thank you for consideration and any information you can provide.
