Denis Island’s environmental work gets global media exposure…

In my post of 17th November 2008 I wrote about the filming of our environmental projects by Seychelles National TV company the SBC. This was subsequently aired and I gave links to the footage on YouTube in my post of 12th January.

The work however did not end there. Srdjana Janosevic who led the filming on Denis submitted the footage to CNN’s World Report programme and an edited version appeared for several days on that global network over the weekend before last. It is fantastic for Denis and GIF to receive such global coverage and really puts a massive tick in the Outreach Programme Box under the island’s Environmental Management Plan.

Our sincere thanks go to Srdjana for her interest in our work and her endeavours in getting the images out to the widest possible audience. Indeed we hope to get her back out to the island in the coming months to film another of our projects.
