Mohammed VI Foundation's impact on ocean's future!

This month's podcast combines key elements from two recent episodes - the role of Africa in the Ocean Decade with Jaco Stemmet from Fugro and funding the Ocean Decade with Mark Spalding from The Ocean Foundation - in one perfect package. Mrs. Kenza Khallafi, the Partnerships Officer at the Mohammed VI Foundation for Environmental Protection, joins the podcast this month to discuss the crucial role the Mohammed VI Foundation has played since the beginning of the Ocean Decade, and shares some powerful first hand experience of the importance of funding capacity development toward the creation of "the ocean we need for the future we want".
