Photos of Public Seminars on Marine Parks and Marine Ecological Resources 2009

Seminars on Marine Parks and Marine Ecological Resources from July to August 2009 at Hong Kong Cultural Centre have been completed.

The purpose of this programme is to share the knowledge of the speakers with the public on both marine ecology and conservation in Hong Kong. We hope to increase the understanding of the public on our marine environment so as to arouse their concerns on and gain their support to our marine parks management and other marine conservation programme in Hong Kong.
