I am so excited for this - a UN proclaimed and dedicated decade to ocean science and generating ocean knowledge to achieve the sustainable development goals - particularly SDG 14 - Life below water. In this episode, I explore what the ocean decade is, why it is important, and how you can get involved - both in generating ocean knowledge but also how to be part of the participative, transformative, and two-way processes that the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) is proposing. To find out more - and endorse an ocean-action, head on over to: https://www.oceandecade.org/ and to find out more about what the framework for the ocean decade entails, look no further: https://www.oceandecade.org/assets/The_Science_We_Need_For_The_Ocean_We_Want.pdf

Happy New Year, everyone!
