Screening of the “Saving Atlantis” documentary

The event will begin with a panel discussion featuring the documentary’s producers, coral reef experts, activists, and community leaders who will discuss the challenges and opportunities for conserving coral reef ecosystems. After the panel discussion, there will be the screening of the documentary “Saving Atlantis,” which explores the critical state of coral reefs and global efforts for their conservation.

To conclude, a short concert of champeta music with an environmental focus will be held. Champeta is a traditional Colombian music style with social and cultural significance. Performed by local artists, the music will evoke the deep connection between coastal culture and the marine environment, inspiring attendees to reflect on the importance of protecting coral reefs, which are fundamental ecosystems for the well-being of coastal communities.
