Protecting the Western Antarctic Peninsula ?South Shetland Islands

Since the ban of commercial whaling in the Southern Ocean in 1986, little data exist on the current status of the cetacean population. The expensive cost of surveys and extreme weather conditions make research in Antarctic waters difficult. ???

In 2019, Whale and Dolphin Conservation, supported by the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, sent 5 researchers to the South Shetland Islands to conduct a 20-day cetacean visual and acoustic survey.

This study aims to develop pioneering acoustic research methods, to correlate the presence of cetaceans with the evolution of environmental conditions and finally, to establish a diagnosis of new threats to these species.

Laila Schlereth

Our guest today was born at the crossroads of two extraordinary worlds. Her mother was a celebrated star of the golden age of Egyptian cinema while her German father became a prominent figure in real-estate and later a diplomat. Speaking four languages, she went on to build a distinguished identity of her own, studying economics and law in Austria, with a career spanning investment, hospitality and real estate – and, of course, some singing and acting roles along the way. Today, the Monaco resident of 25 years adds diplomacy to her portfolio as she was appointed Vice Honorary Consul of Austria in Monaco in 2025. Meet Laila Schlereth. Hosted on Ausha.
