Within Cetasea, my mid-term objective is to become a certified European Scientific Diver (level 1), contribute to ecological monitoring projects in Valencia as a diver to create a center of marine mammal rehabilitation with Founder Frederique Gilbert, and collaborate with research team in Valencian Universities and the Oceanogràfic to benefit the Mediterranean Blue Economy and marine conservation efforts. To do so, I aim to engage a wider community of certified scuba divers locally through our local dive center and build a regional citizen science project that expands data collection and habitat management which would hopefully become part of a future thesis with the University Polytechnic of Valencia, MSc Marine and Coastal Ecosystem Management that I’d like to enrol in in 2026/2027.
I am particularly interested in how keystone species can act as bioindicator of ecosystem health and recovery in
MPAs and how divers’ Local Ecological Knowledge (LEK) can help towards their monitoring.
