President of Morigenos Nominated for Delo’s Person of the Year 2024

We were very proud to follow the announcement of Delo newspaper’s Person of the Year 2024, held on 9 January 2025 in Ljubljana. One of the nominees for this prestigious recognition was our president, Dr. Tilen Genov, which is an exceptional testament to his dedication and long-standing contributions to the research and conservation of marine mammals.
We first shared the news of this nomination on our social media platforms, celebrating this remarkable achievement with our community. Dr. Genov, who also serves as the Chair of the European Cetacean Society, has significantly advanced our understanding of dolphins in Slovenia and the Gulf of Trieste. Through his work with Morigenos, he has not only contributed to their protection but also raised broader awareness of the importance of marine ecosystems.
This nomination is not just a recognition of Dr. Genov’s work; it is also a reflection of the collective efforts of all who support our mission and collaborate toward a brighter future for marine mammals and the marine environment. We are deeply grateful for your unwavering support and proud that our work is being acknowledged by a wider audience. We extend our heartfelt congratulations to all the nominees, and especially to the award recipient, Prof. Dr. Samo Zver.
