Ibon Cancio Uriarte’s mainly researches how pollution influences sexual differentiation of fish. During his lecture at DSF, he started by providing some easy-to-understand and detailed explanations of reproduction before he moved on the main theme. He pointed out that Charles Darwin is a god for coming up with the theory of evolution; males are costly from the point of view of the species and biological sex is diverse. Cancio made the audience laugh with the examples he used to explain these ideas, while setting the scene to understand more technical explanations.

‘Waste: we do not want to see it, but it is here’ Iñaki Susaeta, an environmental technician at IHOBE, the Basque Government’s environmental management agency, thus started his talk at the Donostia Sustainability Forum. In a world flooded with statistics, Susaeta proposed a change of strategy: ‘for the narrative to try to kill the data’. The aim is to avoid cold figures to address the root of the problem: our relationship with objects and hidden cost of our development.

Monitoring marine mammals through stranded animal networks in the United Kingdom has become a key tool for advancing conservation policies and improving marine management. This was explained by Rebecca von Hellfeld at the conference held as part of the Donostia Sustainability Forum, where she detailed how data collected through the CSIP and SMASS programmes have helped strengthen wildlife protection and guide evidence-based decision-making, in a model that can be replicated globally. Von Hellfeld is a researcher at the University of Aberdeen (Scotland). She holds a degree in Environmental Sciences and Business Management from the University of London, an Erasmus Mundus Master’s degree in Environment and Marine Resources from EHU, and a PhD from Heidelberg University.
