Therefore, we try to articulate innovative communication formulas, such as the production of documentaries and film productions aimed at the general public.
Cristina García Baylo is also in charge of a large department that includes the management of the press office, relations with the online and offline media, the launch of campaigns through the media, conferences and scientific reports, in addition to working so that Bioscicat, as a scientific entity, influences public policies, facilitating changes in legislative regulation and a greater allocation of public resources for the conservation of biodiversity.
