Dr. Lorenzo von Fersen, on behalf of YAQU PACHA, signed a cooperation agreement with GEMARS during a meeting with our partners in Brazil to collaborate in the areas of education, science, technology, and culture.
Close cooperation with local organizations in South America is crucial for the successful implementation of our projects.
Discussions were also held with fishermen participating in our joint efforts to reduce dolphin bycatch. Currently, objects (empty plastic bottles) are being tested in the fishing nets so that dolphins can recognize and avoid them. This is a cost-effective alternative to acoustic signals (pingers).
