BIN AWANG DAUD

I am a dedicated Marine Technologist with extensive experience in marine fisheries, coral reef conservation, and ecological marine management. With a strong academic foundation, including a PhD in progress at UNIMAS and a Master’s in Ecological Marine Management from Vrije Universiteit Brussel, I have actively contributed to international conferences, research projects, and scientific publications focused on marine biodiversity and sustainable fisheries. My expertise spans stakeholder engagement, environmental data management, and coral restoration, with a commitment to advancing ocean conservation efforts. As a fluent speaker of Malay and English, with additional proficiency in French and Thai, I thrive in diverse and multidisciplinary environments, leveraging my technical skills and field experience to drive impactful marine conservation initiatives.
