Session Description
A suspicious event has occurred at a mangrove research site. Something—or someone—has disrupted a critical study. Is it sabotage, theft, or just a misunderstanding? Participants must become detectives, working together to examine real objects, interpret field data, and interview “suspects” to crack the case. Along the way, they uncover the essential roles of mangrove scientists and the threats to these unique ecosystems.Organised by
