About Christy Achtone NKOLLO AGANGA

I have a doctorate in geography. I am also a research associate at the Laboratory of Geomatics, Applied Research and Consultancy (LAGRAC) in the Department of Geographic, Environmental and Marine Sciences at Omar Bongo University.

My work as a marine mammal scientist has focused primarily on understanding the distribution of the African manatee, the sources of conflict related to fishing and the distribution of the African manatee, and on improving the quality of marine mammal data collection, analysis and communication in Gabon. I have pioneered a decade of research on the African manatee, including designing and leading a research group on the African manatee in the southern coastal zone of Gabon.
