Ameer Abdulla-Eweida
Red Sea Visionary
Professor Ameer Abdulla-Eweida strives to work in areas that have been globally ignored, forgotten, or forsaken despite their unique biodiversity and social values. A Marine Conservation Scientist and National Geographic Explorer, Ameer is currently working on assessing the unique coral reef ecosystems of the Red Sea and developing solutions for their conservation.
He has 20-years experience in marine science and conservation in the Red Sea, so he’s perfectly placed to advise on enhancing the socio-ecological resilience of Red Sea coral reef systems. Ameer has also worked in the Mediterranean Sea, Indian Ocean, Arabian Gulf, Great Barrier Reef, and the Gulf of Mexico, and is deputy VC Chair for West Asia of the IUCN World Commission on Protected Areas. His work consistently aims to harness multi-disciplinary science for conservation planning and ecosystem-based management. Catch up with him on Linkedin.
