A conservation-focused drone photography, mapping, and environmental storytelling eco-adventureArrive Monday, October 5- Depart Friday, October 9, 2026This small-group, four-day journey is grounded in real environmental projects and long-standing partnerships in Barbados, led by marine ecologist and geospatial scientist Dr. Kim.Using a ridge-to-reef, ecosystem-based approach, the journey explores how drones are being used for conservation, environmental monitoring, and storytelling—and, critically, how the information and imagery collected are used by local partners and shared back with communities to support ongoing environmental work in Barbados.This is a learning-through-experience conservation immersion. Participants step directly into projects Dr. Kim has been working on for many years, learning by doing alongside local practitioners. The experience reflects a participatory, circular-economy, community-based model, where technology supports stewardship, not extraction.Participants will also have the opportunity to build a conservation-focused visual portfolio, contributing selected imagery and stories back to local organizations through a clear Drones-for-Good ethos.

Dr. Kim is a marine ecologist, geospatial scientist, and drone mapping specialist with more than 30 years of applied environmental experience across the Caribbean, California, and internationally.She is widely recognized for advancing a participatory, ecosystem-based approach to drone mapping and monitoring, connecting people, technology, and information to support environmental stewardship.Her work includes:<ul><li class="ui-30d40835-py-17 ui-30d40835-bg-gray-400 ui-30d40835-border-gray-400">Establishing and supporting national and regional drone programs</li><li class="ui-30d40835-py-17 ui-30d40835-bg-gray-400 ui-30d40835-border-gray-400">Training government agencies, NGOs, and local community groups</li><li class="ui-30d40835-py-17 ui-30d40835-bg-gray-400 ui-30d40835-border-gray-400">Long-term collaboration with the University of the West Indies (Barbados)</li><li class="ui-30d40835-py-17 ui-30d40835-bg-gray-400 ui-30d40835-border-gray-400">Pioneering drone monitoring for coastal habitats, fisheries, coral reefs, and sargassum seaweed</li><li class="ui-30d40835-py-17 ui-30d40835-bg-gray-400 ui-30d40835-border-gray-400">Supporting projects linked to United Nations–affiliated initiatives and regional conservation bodies</li></ul>Participants learn directly from Dr. Kim’s field practice, national projects, and partners, engaging in live demonstrations, guided flying, and applied mapping activities. Missions are planned and led by Dr. Kim, with participants actively flying, observing, and contributing—without this being a formal “how-to” training course.These are real projects, not case studies. Participants see how drones have been used to monitor environmental change over time, and how data and imagery move from collection to use.
