“I was there to learn more about critical and innovative approaches to #TransdisciplinaryResearch ' – shares Research Fellow Mia Strand (Mia Strand) after attending the São Paulo School of Advanced Science Transdisciplinarity for Transformative Change program. #OceanLiteracy
At our past #MarineConservation webinar, Dr. Richard Caddell (@cardiffuni) expressed his thoughts on the implications of fisheries closures among other topics relating to #MarineProtectedAreas and the #BBNJ Treaty. Recording available: Oceannexus.org/webinar
Thank you to all #LiveWebinar attendees and presenters yesterday! If you missed it, the webinar recording is now available at Oceannexus.org/webinar.
Our next webinar will be on May 23 on the topic of #BlueEconomy .
'Not all fisheries closures are bad closures' – states Dr. Richard Caddell (Cardiff University)
Fishing area closures essentially regulate stocks that are not there yet, it is far-sighted management.

The #BBNJ Agreement – Next Steps
It is not yet enforced. Should the #EU successfully ratify, we would have a total of 27 parties signed on so far, about half way there.

'Despite notable successes with Regional Seas Agreements #RSAs , we do see that instead of holistic environmental protection tools, we have a patchwork of tools that often leave biodiversity vulnerable' –Jade Jones (@cardiffuni) #MarineConservation #LiveWebinar
The 'silo effect' in ocean governance is when there is a fragmented and highly sectorised regulatory framework, explains Jade Jones at the #MarineConservation #LiveWebinar .

' #UNCLOS does not give the legal basis to subject all parties to respect a #HighSeas #MPA '. –Jade Jones (@cardiffuni)
The generality and vagueness of the language is common in most high level multilateral treaties, explains Jade. #LiveWebinar United Nations

Today at #OurOcean2024 I had the honor of speaking on a panel co-hosted by the Department of State, NOAA, and Smithsonian Institution. We discussed achieving ocean conservation across global and regional scales in national waters, and in areas beyond national jurisdiction.
We are proud to see Research Fellow Hekia Bodwitch travel around Washington, D.C., advocating for a just and #equitable implementation of President Joe Biden's (@POTUS) #AmericaTheBeautiful conservation initiative.
