Choosing the right platform for a judo club's online presence is crucial for its growth and community engagement. While Facebook is a popular and versatile social network, Judo Connect offers specific advantages tailored to the needs and aspirations of judo clubs. Here are three main reasons why Judo Connect is a better choice for a judo club compared to using Facebook as their primary social network:

Serry Shoaib, a dedicated BSc (Hons) Ecology & Conservation student, has just returned from an exciting research trip with the Environment Agency - Abu Dhabi (EAD). She investigated the population status and threats to the endangered marine dugong (sea cow) by interviewing local fishermen. Serry also had the unique opportunity to visit Malquot, a rescued dugong now cared for by Seaworld Abu Dhabi, thanks to the EAD's 2023 efforts! Check out the fantastic photos from her adventure!

Our students undertake thrilling projects like Serry's. Want to learn more about our animal and environmental bio
