Another fun day of #ICTC2026 pre-conference workshops!
400 people from the conservation tech community joined for interactive training on different technologies and topics β satellite tags, AI, bioacoustics, MPA management, camera trap data and more!
Thanks to UTEC for hosting us!π€
They did!! This crew at @wildlabs.bsky.social #ICTC workshop about automated insect monitoring built a whole bunch of mothboxes from scratch, and we even got to test them out at the nearby museum of contemporary art!

Kicking off #ICTC2026 strong with Day 1 of our pre-conference workshops!
We had a great blend of technical deep dives, practical skills-building & group discussions across the conservation tech spectrum. Huge thanks to all workshop organizers, volunteers & UTEC for hosting us (& these great pics)!
Andy begins a talk with a PowerPoint. About twenty people, seated at desks with lots of equipment for building Mothboxes, listen as he talks.
Starting our Mothbox building workshop at #ICTC! Hopefully by the end of the day, our participants will have a functional Mothbox that they can deploy and see what nocturnal insects are around in Lima! With @dinalab.bsky.social @wildlabs.bsky.social
