UNSECO webinars go online

Tuesday, 2 November 2021 07:18

UNESCO Biosphere Isle of Man has been hosting a series of webinars, which are now available on Youtube.

They teamed up with Dublin Bay Biosphere and Kerry Biosphere Reserve to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the UNESCO's Man and Biosphere programme.

The Island has led three talks so far - focusing on the Calf of Man, marine conservation and our 'sense of place,' which are now available to view on the Kerry Reserve Youtube channel.

Organisers say they appreciate people can’t always spare the time to ‘attend’ webinars, so can now enjoy them online at leisure.
