    Tanya Alvaro
    Director, Maritime Security and Intelligence. Canadian Coast Guard

    Ms. Tanya Alvaro is the Director of Maritime Security and Intelligence at the Canadian Coast Guard.

    Her distinguished career began with her academic achievements, notably her bachelors degree in Political Science from the University of Western Ontario, from which she graduated with honours. She also holds a Master’s degree in War Studies from the Royal Military College of Canada, and has completed the National Security Programme from the Canadian Forces College.

    Ms. Alvaro’s journey in the federal public service began as a policy analyst in what used to be known as the Indian and Northern Affairs Canada department. She then continued to work in policy and research at Human Resources and Social development Canada, where she stayed for 2 years. Subsequently, Ms. Alvaro worked for the department of Fisheries and Oceans where she played a key role as a senior policy Analyst in Strategic Priorities and Planning. She then continued to refine her knowledge and expertise in policy as a Senior Strategic Policy Advisor of Maritime strategy at the department of National Defence. Thereafter, she returned to the department of Fisheries and Oceans and quickly shifted to the Canadian Coast Guard as the Director of Horizontal Priorities in 2011. After almost 5 years in this role, Ms. Alvaro was appointed as the Director of Maritime Security and Intelligence at the Canadian Coast Guard and she recently joined the Innovation, Planning and Engagement Directorate on short-term assignment as the A/Senior Director, Innovation, Reconciliation and Program Integration.

    In this capacity, she is responsible for delivering the Coast Guard’s national maritime security program in support of Canada’s national security policy and law enforcement agendas. This includes cyber threats, Arctic security, directing the Coast Guard’s involvement in three interdepartmental regional maritime security operations centres, and the National Command Centre in Ottawa.

    Mme Tanya Alvaro est la directrice du Renseignement et la sûreté maritime de la Garde côtière canadienne.

    La carrière distinguée de Mme Alvaro a débutée avec ses accomplissements académiques, notamment son baccalauréat avec mention d’excellence en sciences politiques de l’université de Western Ontario. Elle a aussi complété le programme de sécurité nationale du Collège des Forces canadiennes, et elle détient également une maîtrise en études de guerre du Collège militaire royal du Canada.

    Le cheminement de Mme Alvaro au sein de la fonction publique fédérale a débuté avec son poste d’analyste politique au département anciennement connu sous le nom des Affaires autochtones et du Nord Canada. Elle a continué de travailler comme analyste politique au Ressources humaines et Développement social Canada, où elle y resta pendant 2 ans. D’emblée, Mme Alvaro continua de peaufiner ses connaissances et son expertise en politique dans son rôle de conseillère principale d’analyse politique de stratégie maritime au département de Défense nationale. Subséquemment, Mme Alvaro est revenue au département des Pêches et Océans où elle a rapidement fait la transition vers la Garde côtière canadienne dans le rôle de directrice de priorités horizontales. Après presque 5 ans dans ce rôle, Mme Alvaro a été nommé la directrice de Renseignement et sûreté maritime de la Garde côtière canadienne et elle a récemment rejoint l’équipe de l ‘ Innovation, planification et engagement pour une mission de courte durée en tant que Directrice principale intérimaire d’ Innovation, réconciliation et intégration des programmes.

    Dans ce rôle, Mme Alvaro est responsable de diriger le programme nationale maritime sûreté de la Garde côtière canadienne de façon à soutenir la politique de sécurité nationale et le programme d’application de la loi. Ceci inclus diriger les cyber-menaces, la sécurité de l’arctique, l’implication de la Garde côtière dans trois centres d’opérations régionales et interdépartementales de sûreté maritime, et le centre de commandement national d’Ottawa.

    Peter Hammarstedt
    Director of Campaigns, Sea Shepherd Global

    Swedish-American Peter Hammarstedt is the Director of Campaigns for Sea Shepherd Global and is Chairman of Sea Shepherd Australia. He is captain of the ocean-going vessel Bob Barker, having spent two decades at-sea including 10 years in Antarctica. In 2014/15, the Bob Barker, with Peter as captain, set the world record for the longest pursuit of a poaching vessel at sea after chasing the Interpol-wanted fishing vessel Thunder for 110 days, covering three oceans and 11,000 nautical miles, before its captain intentionally sank his own vessel in a bid to destroy evidence. Since then, Peter, has provided civilian offshore patrol vessels (COPVs), under so-called ‘ship rider’ agreements, to many African coastal countries in order to combat illegal, unreported and unregulated (IUU) fishing. On-going partnerships between Sea Shepherd and the law enforcement agents of African coastal and island States have resulted in the arrest of over 70 vessels for illegal fishing and other fisheries crimes over the past five years. The COPVs have served as critical platforms for capacity-building of law enforcement agencies in increasing monitoring, control and surveillance capabilities in the maritime domain.
