"The MCL helped me to delve deeper into the blue carbon ecosystem and marine biodiversity. Apart from developing my skills in field data collection and laboratory analysis, the program improved my writing and presentation skills through small tasks provided for us during the internship. Moreover, online meetings with experts and events organized by them helped in widening my network in this field."
