Protecting our Seas: Marine Biosecurity in Aotearoa New Zealand

Marine biosecurity is challenging not because nature is failing, but because it’s working perfectly. Dr Malindi Gammon, Invasion Ecologist, will explore how highly adaptable marine species spread, out-compete native life, and thrive in new environments — and why that matters for Aotearoa New Zealand. You’ll hear about why early detection is critical, and how everyday actions by the public can help protect our seas.
