Rugvin Foundation
Expertise in marine mammals and life in the North Sea
The Rugvin Foundation is our partner in the Netherlands and contributes in depth knowledge about the biodiversity of the North Sea. With years of experience in research on harbour porpoises, marine ecosystems, and education, Rugvin plays an essential role in the development of the content for the North Sea book.
In this title, the harbour porpoise, sometimes referred to as the “brown whale”, takes centre stage, a modest yet fascinating marine mammal that remains unknown to many people. Through this book, children discover how this cetacean lives alongside other species and how life in the sea is closely connected to everything that happens both above and below the water.
The Rugvin Foundation not only provides expert review of the content, but also contributes to the distribution and educational use of the book within the Netherlands.
