My name is Jessie McGregor and I am currently a second year Zoology / Marine Zoology student at Bangor University.
I am crowdfunding to raise money so that I can get to Indonesia and carry out vital research on understanding the effects of climate change on coral reefs for my dissertation project, and most importantly to spread awareness on the importance of protecting this unique and beautiful ecosystem.
The money raised will go towards the travel costs (air, sea and land), dive equipment and sampling equipment, along with help of Operation Wallacea and their group of scientists and field assistants to aid with my project. I will be spending 6 weeks on a small island called Hoga, located just off Sulawesi.
