Scuba Diplomacy

Scuba Diplomacy Founded by Eddie Gonzalez, PADI DM #259986, to advance diplomacy by promoting cultural exchange & un I started this scuba club to facilitate some connections.

Scuba diving is one of the best ways to connect to the marine world & understand other cultures. If you want to be a diving diplomat, join the scuba club. Dive Travel
Scuba Diplomacy currently coordinates an annual dive trip to Cuba each August. For more information and a detailed itinerary, message me. I am also a PADI divemaster ( #259986) with a passion for scuba and sharing that passion with ot

hers. I believe scuba diving is one of the best and most enjoyable ways of creating marine conservationists and understanding other cultures. You can’t help getting invested in the marine world when you are at its mercy. Come hear what that’s all about. If being a diving diplomat sounds like your thing, join the group. Diver down.

I've had a chance to scuba dive with Mr. Stewart a couple of times as part of his coral and archeology work in South Florida. A great man with a great mission. He's making a real impact in the lives of young people and in telling the story of slave wrecks. Mad respect, sir.

Retiree Ken Stewart leads a nonprofit called Diving With a Purpose that teaches people how to find and record underwater shipwrecks.

Hello diving diplomacy friends,

The Intercultural Outreach Initiative, the conservation organization we use to organize our trips to Cuba and the Galapagos, is hosting an online auction to support their conservation projects amid COVID. My spice company, Apothecary Spices, has donated a couple of field kits containing a collection of all my spices. Donate for a good cause and get some spices in the bargain.

Check it out my item below in their well-being section. Lots of other selections to bid on, too. Please support this great organization: https://www.ioi.ngo/auction-2020/ -being.

With our study abroad fall semester cancelled, we need your help to keep ioi’s doors open, to continue supporting our communities, and maintain our on-going and COVID-Relief-related projects (read our July Newsletter for more information).

Shark Enthusiasts, NOAA's National Marine Sanctuary Program is hosting:

Hollywood Sharks vs. Real Sharks with Doug Perrine
Thursday, May 21, 6pm Eastern

Over a lifetime, Doug Perrine has traveled the planet studying and photographing the marine environment with a particular passion for some of the oceanʻs largest and least understood animals, sharks. In this talk Doug will deconstruct the media bias concerning this large and diverse class of fishes, and show how sharks portrayed in Hollywood and in the media are very different from the real behavior of these fascinating, ancient, and ecologically important animals. Through vibrant imagery, as well as intimate observations of these sometimes secretive animals, Doug will shed light on their real behavior and life history.
