Workshop: Caught on Camera

Discover UAE wildlife through motion-sensing camera footage, learn about the technology, and contribute to conservation efforts

About the event

The UAE’s wildlife has secrets…and you could be one of the first to uncover them! Caught on Camera, our exclusive web workshop, takes you behind the lens of hidden camera traps scattered across the country’s most remote landscapes. You’ll work as our resident citizen scientist, helping identify elusive creatures caught in rare, candid moments. Every photo you classify feeds into real conservation data that protects our nation’s biodiversity. Brought to you by Mashreq and Emirates Nature-WWF, this 90-minute workshop is your chance to see the UAE’s wildlife like never before and play an active role in protecting it. Don’t miss this chance to discover, learn, and contribute!
