We had the pleasure of sharing in a great dialogue this week about our Ocean Science Equity work in the Pacific Islands. Discussion included the challenges of making the leap from data collection to policy application, the need to talk about SDG14 across silos and the importance of working with and through local partner institutions. Grateful to have joined over 30 esteemed fellows this week at the US-Pacific Institute for Rising Leaders, at @SAISHopkins' new facility in Washington, DC.
Estimados, amablemente los invitamos a nuestro conversatorio sobre la enseñanza de la diplomacia científica en América Latina y el Caribe con increíbles colegas de #Latam
