World Fish Migration Day 21 May, 2016 #WFMD2016

This past May we had a Share your river story for WFMD 2016. We also used the #HeartTheRivers artwork to spread the word about our love for rivers this WFMD

Background to the WFMD can be found here. We asked people to share and spread their knowledge about fish, rivers and the importance of connected waters around the globe. A video stream of the submissions can be seen here.

If you wish to purchase STICKERS of #HeartTheRivers to support a FWWG Conservation Student Award, pay via paypal here. Please input an amount, click next, and then input your address and a memo line which says "Heart the Rivers stickers". 

The art was designed Sukh Mantel and aMan Bloom. Sukh is a Freshwater Ecologist with focus on the use of GIS and remote sensing data in water resources modelling. South Africa has been her home for the past 10 years where she works at Rhodes University. aMan Bloom is a freelance artist/writer/photographer with interest in Deep Ecology. Sukh and aMan have contributed the #HeartTheRivers artwork to SCB FWWG and we encourage our members to use the logo and share it in the lead up to WFMD. You can download different versions of the #HeartTheRivers image, here.
