Early Career Ocean Professionals’ Post

🌊 Call for Abstracts: One Ocean Science 🌊 The health of our oceans is at a critical juncture, demanding immediate and collaborative action. This is the focus of the third United Nations Ocean Conference (UNOC3), taking place in Nice from June 9 to 13, 2025. To ensure that political decisions are grounded in science, CNRS and Ifremer are organising the international scientific congress One Ocean Science, bringing together 2,000 experts from around the globe. This is a unique opportunity to highlight the environmental challenges facing the Mediterranean Sea and its coasts, and to push for stronger efforts in restoration and conservation. You can submit your abstract until Thursday, 14 November 2024 https://lnkd.in/djxt3PAy #MediterraneanSea #UNOC3 #OneOceanScience #Mediterranean #SustainableDevelopment Jean-Pierre Gattuso UNESCO Ocean UN Ocean Decade

📢 Our research center has participated in the Navigating the Future VI report which emphasizes the importance of the oceans for the survival of planet earth, and proposes lines of research necessary to strengthen our knowledge about the marine ecosystems. This report, in which our Director, as member of an working group of the European Marine Board IVZW (EMB), to which he belongs, as Alternate Delegate, Professor Pereira Dopazo actively contributed and is a co-author The EMB is the main European think tank on marine science policy and constitutes a platform to advance marine research and also serves as an advisor in the decision-making of European Union policy makers in this field. #ARCUS Universidade de Santiago de Compostela👇 https://lnkd.in/dutF2pZU

This 10th November, Eurachem marks the World Science Day for Peace and Development with a short blog article. This international day was established in 2001 by UNESCO, to raise awareness about the importance of scientific knowledge to face, in a constructive way, the multiple challenges affecting human societies so far. The UN 2030 Agenda focuses on 17 objectives, all of them aiming to support peace and development and all of them requiring support from scientific knowledge. This article describes how Eurachem helps to promote science for sustainable development. https://lnkd.in/erStgTeW

⌛ [SAVE THE DATE] Ice Memory Workshop #5 Accessibility and sharing of scientific samples and collections: what are the issues? ⏰ On October 15, 2024 5pm-6:30pm CET - On line Register today: https://lnkd.in/eVUFQfbB Is it possible to authorise third parties to access samples from a scientific collection/bank? What are the practical procedures for accessing environmental samples (costs, specific structure, networks, monitoring committee, etc.)? Is it a good idea to share data and metadata from a scientific collection/bank? What are the issues involved in sharing samples at national, European and international level? Should access to data and samples be given to stakeholders outside the field of research (private individuals, economic operators)? Should everyone be allowed access to unique, irreplaceable samples such as the ice cores from disappearing glaciers? Is free access to research data on these cores, which are unique in their kind, a matter of right? What kind of governance is needed to ensure an 'ethical' selection of requests for access to the cores? What liability is there in the event of an misjudgement? With : 🔺 Michèle Tixier-Boichard : Director of Research in the Animal Genetics and Integrative Biology Unit at INRAE (Institut national de la recherche agronomique). She is coordinator of the CRB-Anim biological resources infrastructure and coordinator of the RARe infrastructure. And 🔺Didier Bouchel : Researcher at INRAE, he is in charge of steering the implementation of the Nagoya Protocol at INRAE and for the RARe research infrastructure. Join the serie of workshops of the Ice Memory collaborative international chair to dive into these topics with us.

Celebrated every 10 November, World Science Day for Peace and Development highlights the important role of science in society and the need to engage the wider public in debates on emerging scientific issues. It also underlines the importance and relevance of science in our daily lives. By linking science more closely with society, World Science Day for Peace and Development aims to ensure that citizens are kept informed of developments in science. It also underscores the role scientists play in broadening our understanding of the remarkable, fragile planet we call home and in making our societies more sustainable. 2024 theme and celebration The theme of the UNESCO celebration of the World Science Day for Peace and Development 2024 is: Why Science Matters: Engaging Minds and Empowering Futures. In August 2023, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) proclaimed the period 2024-2033 as the International Decade of Sciences for Sustainable Development. In this context, the 2024 UNESCO World Science Day event (https://lnkd.in/gwARfgbe) will present an opportunity to question distinguished scientists about the ways in which science affects our daily lives and contributes to finding solutions to the most pressing local and global challenges.
