Early career researchers are (will be) at the forefront of marine decision making. @deniskarcher.bsky.social et al. describe challenges ECRs face in the complex multi-level #ocean #governance sphere & outline practical guidance for making research relevant to decision-making doi.org/10.17645/oas...

🌊 Early-career researchers are shaping the future of our #oceans — but are we giving them the support they need to create real impact? We answer 8 frequently asked questions by #ECS in our new commentary @cogitatiooas.bsky.social: doi.org/10.17645/oas... #MarSocSci #BlueEconomy #MarineGovernance

How to engage (and have impact) at the science-policy interface? In a new Commentary (doi.org/10.17645/oas...) we explore this specifically for early-career researchers aiming to engage with marine governance. Check out the paper for practical, entry‐level guidance as a starting point.

Check out our new commentary in Ocean and Society for tips on how early-career researchers can engage with and impact the marine science-policy interface 🌊 🏛️ Great effort led by @deniskarcher.bsky.social #ECR #marinepolicy www.cogitatiopress.com/oceanandsoci...
