Webinar of the Week: Stakeholder Involvement in the Creation and Management of MPAs

First year Master of Professional Science student in Marine Conservation, Zachary Lipschultz, is featured in this week’s webinar.

Currently there are 5,880 Marine Protected Areas (MPA) worldwide, many of which have contributed to a 150% increase in the area of protected marine waters from 2003-2010. Zachary focuses on the world’s largest MPA, the 200 nautical mile Chagos Marine Reserve, during a presentation in Dr. Neil Hammerschlag’s Marine Conservation Biology class.
