?? Happy Filmmaker Friday! Today, we get to hear from Clément Pourtal, co-director and producer of The Blue Quest Palawan, a film about the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve in the Coral Triangle of the Philippines. This film demonstrates the importance of establishing Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in some of our ocean’s most diverse areas. Clément Pourtal on what he hopes viewers take away from watching The Blue Quest Palawan: “The Blue Quest’s mission is to visit marine conservation projects all over the world in order to highlight the marine conservation issues and best solutions alongside the dedicated people and communities involved. It is already serving as a template as, having seen it, other ocean conservation actors have got in touch to enquire about us focussing on their work. We want to inform viewers that MPAs are effective for people and the planet and that to meet the 30x30 objectives we should act now and everyone, not just politicians, can help achieve our aims. Vast areas of our ocean still need protecting and with enforced protection and the involvement of local communities, in tandem with the appropriate level of financial support and transparent management, we can meet our goals.”’ To learn more about this project, visit https://lnkd.in/gCYn2aji ??

Lance Morgan, President of Marine Conservation Institute, will also be a panel speaker during the discussion following the film. Don’t miss out on this engaging event!
