Sheena Talma

I am a conservationist based in the Seychelles I work on a variety of projects and with an assortment of organisation. My role as the Science Program Manager of Nekton Foundation, a charity focused on equitable science research between 0-300 meters is where I spend most of my time. I specialized in fisheries and ichthyology as I think fish are really cool. I have worked for the Ministry of Environment, Energy and Climate Change in Seychelles on environmental sustainability initiatives. I have a passion for generating science within the Seychelles and the Indian Ocean. I am especially interested in education and awareness-raising programs that will garner a new generation of marine scientists and enthusiasts.
