Robert Sluka Email & Phone Number

I grew up loving the ocean – despite spending my first 18 years of life in Detroit. Starting diving at age 13 and degrees in marine biology from University of Miami convinced me that a life lived studying the ocean was for me. I grew up in a Christian home and continue to follow that faith. However, it has only been recently that I have discovered how my faith relates to my love of the ocean. I am working towards a life that integrates my beliefs and love of the ocean in a way that brings blessing to people, nations, and the planet. I am Lead Scientist of A Rocha International’s Marine and Coastal Conservation Programme and an associate of the Faraday Institute for Science and Religion.My research focuses on biodiversity conservation, marine protected areas, fisheries and poverty alleviation, and fish ecology. We currently have projects in Kenya, the Mediterranean, and the UK. Projects include marine protected area biodiversity, shark ecology in Kenya, and marine microplastics. Additionally, I work at the interface of religion and marine ecology, developing resources to motivate particularly the global Christian community to engage in marine conservation.
