Am 03.10.13 sank vor #Lampedusa ein Boot mit hunderten fliehenden Menschen. Nur wenige Tage später, am 11.10. sank ein weiteres Boot. Insgesamt starben innerhalb weniger Tage über 600 Menschen.
Foto von einem Strand mit leichten Wellen. In einem orangen Kasten steht "12 Jahre nach den Schiffbrüchen vor Lampedusa. Europäische Abschottungspolitik tötet." In der rechten oberen Ecke ist das Seebrücke-Logo in weiß auf orange.

If you’re applying to your dream lab for an internship/PhD/postdoc, always send a second email 1-2 weeks after the first one if you don’t hear back.

I promise we will be grateful rather than annoyed. My email inbox is a disaster and I’m quite junior - and very few of us have secretarial support

Remember that #GES4SEAS project hosts the #MarinART Challenge, an international competition that celebrates urban art inspired by the ocean. Organized by @azti.bsky.social , submit photographs of ocean-themed murals and street art. Look those submitted!

Since the 1990s the number of science-policy interfaces (SPIs) has grown to inform decision-making about global environmental crises. Velander studied how SPIs collaborate & found influential individuals & the UN promote collaboration but hurdles limit knowledge co-production doi.org/10.1016/j.en...
Title, author’s name, abstract, and keywords from a paper about collaboration among global environmental science-policy interfaces in knowledge co-production

Despite research showing #CitizenScience can support #policy-making, e.g., raising environmental awareness, citizen science remains under-used in policy-making. Hölscher et al. "highlight the potential of mainstreaming citizen science to enhance #environmental #policy-making" doi.org/10.1016/j.en...
Title, authors’ names, abstract, and keywords from a paper about mainstreaming citizen science in policy development in five European countries

#Stakeholder engagement is widely viewed as essential in marine science-policy interfaces to support informed decision-making. Kopke et al. demonstrated the effectiveness of an online engagement process that resulted in productive/collaborative outcomes @kathkopke.bsky.social doi.org/10.1007/s442...
