INTERVIEW WITH AN IAMSLIC LIBRARIAN: Miraneta Williams-Hazelman from Samoa

SHARING EXPERIENCES & TRANSFERRING KNOWLEDGE

Many of us will be lucky to meet personally at the next 41st Conference, others can be met through these interviews,  in a short and informal virtual manner and with a touch of some personal likes or dislikes. It is in English language for IAMSLIC international but, my suggestion: each one can share it in their own language for the Regional Group. Miraneta, from PIRG and from SPREP (Secretariat for the Pacific Regional Environment Programme), Apia, Samoa, thank you for accepting introducing yourself this way and letting us know you better !
