Rebecca Von Hellfeld: “Monitoring stranded mammals is essential to assess ocean health”
Monitoring marine mammals through stranded animal networks in the United Kingdom has become a key tool for advancing conservation policies and improving marine management. This was explained by Rebecca von Hellfeld at the conference held as part of the Donostia Sustainability Forum, where she detailed how data collected through the CSIP and SMASS programmes have helped strengthen wildlife protection and guide evidence-based decision-making, in a model that can be replicated globally.
Von Hellfeld is a researcher at the University of Aberdeen (Scotland). She holds a degree in Environmental Sciences and Business Management from the University of London, an Erasmus Mundus Master’s degree in Environment and Marine Resources from EHU, and a PhD from Heidelberg University.
