I traveled to Belize in March 2016 as part of a Seminar Abroad opportunity that I completed at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities during the spring semester of my freshman year. This seminar included a classroom component for the first part of the semester which was structured to build our knowledge on the topic of coral reef management and wildlife conservation so that we were informed and prepared to investigate and research the ecosystems of Belize. We spent the beginning portion of the 8-day trip in Monkey Bay at a research facility within the forest and then relocated to spend the majority of our time on Tobacco Caye in the presence of 10 local residents and 2 research coordinators.
