Hi, I'm Valentina Lovat, a marine scientist with a creative mindset, working on strategy and project management for science communication, ocean literacy and ocean conservation initiatives.

My work focuses in designing ocean-based projects, from brainstorming to delivery, and taking care of their implementation with the main aim of advancing marine research, conservation, regeneration, communication, and literacy.

As I always felt enthusiastic about working to preserve the ocean and its biodiversity, I have been collaborating with various entities and experts for years by developing outreach and implementation strategies, data visualization installations, educational materials, reports, and youth and stakeholder engagement programs.

Today, I am part of the Ocean Literacy team of the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO working as coordinator for global initiatives.
