Hi everyone! I am Melanie Ashton - the Coordinator of ISLANDS. I am Australian by birth, British (after a really long time in London), and am now living with my family in the Loire Valley in France. I've spent many years working in the Pacific region, and the last five I have also been involved with chemicals and waste issues in the Caribbean. I am really pleased that we have now launched this group, and I'm very much looking forward to future discussions around mercury in SIDS. A huge thank you to our webinar speakers and panelists, and of course to Kenneth Davis to moderating our session so ably. Looking forward to getting to know you all, and to learning from you!
