In March 2023, the first One Shark training course, focusing on the ecology of tiger sharks and the first steps to take in the event of a bite, was conducted in partnership with Dr Bartoli and Dr Asencio at the CCISM headquarters in Saint-Martin. The event was well attended by the island’s nautical tourism industry, with 37 people taking part. The enthusiasm of the participants was palpable, and they unanimously expressed their desire to see further training sessions organised in the near future. This initiative proved to be a promising success for One Shark, demonstrating the importance of raising awareness and being prepared for the risk of sharks.
