About the event
Tunisia is home to a staggering diversity of wildlife, but changing climates and human impact are pushing species to the edge. From the flamingo migrations of Sebkhet Sejoumi to the search for the elusive Eurasian Otter in the northern rivers, the filmmakers explore the frontlines of Tunisian conservation and the technology fighting to protect it.
Researchers and ecologists investigate these diverse ecosystems through fieldwork, scientific collection, and environmental monitoring, and highlight the vital importance of protecting local wildlife, rare insect populations, and migratory birds threatened by human activity and climate change.
