Sao Tome and Principe

 

Global Ocean has supported the work of young environmental campaigner, Francisco Goncalves, in Sao Tome and Principe since 2007.  Francisco's trips to the region effectively prevented STP from joining the International Whaling Commission and voting alongside the super-rich whaling nations, and is thought to be the first successful campaign of its type in the African region!
