SUMMARY:One Integrated Marine Debris Observing System
DESCRIPTION:Official Satellite Activity of UN Ocean Decade “a Clean Ocean” Laboratory \nThis event is organised by a consortium of 14 international ocean experts and is hosted by GEO Blue Planet\, EU4OceanObs and Mercator Ocean International as an official satellite activity of the 3rd UN Ocean Decade Laboratory “a Clean Ocean”. \nWe will discuss the current state of the marine debris system\, our knowledge about it and ways forward for implementing the Integrated Marine Debris Observing System (IMDOS). We aim to learn about recent advancements in observational techniques and technologies as well as to enhance cooperation\, bringing together multidisciplinary approaches from diverse communities of stakeholders. \nThe hybrid event will include: \n\nThree plenary sessions\, available in both English and French with invited talks\, live discussions and interactions between participants and panellists via the Zoom.\n\nPlenary Session 1: Strengthening scientific knowledge – Nov. 17\, 2021\, 8-10pm CET\nPlenary Session 2: Fostering new monitoring capacities – Nov. 18\, 2021\, 10-12am CET\nPlenary Session 3: Defining the future of IMDOS – Nov. 19\, 2021\, 9-11am CET\n\n\nAn online virtual poster hall on the MIRO platform where presenters and participants will be able to connect and interact from 10 to 30 November 2021\n\n\n\n\nTo learn more about the event\, submit a poster\, and/or register for plenary sessions and updates please visit the dedicated web page\, by clicking here.

SUMMARY:Developing cooperation across GEO Activities to address marine hazards in Africa
DESCRIPTION:An official side event of GEO Week 2021 \nGiven that approximately 25% of Africa’s population live within 100 km of the coast\, marine hazards pose increasing threats at local and regional levels. These include eutrophication\, coastal flooding\, marine pollution\, and water-borne diseases – all of which can be exacerbated by climate change. \nThe side event will review the role Earth Observations play in monitoring\, preparing for\, and recovering from\, marine hazards and what GEO can do to support the coastal aspects of the Sendai Framework for disaster risk reduction in Africa to inform priorities and identify opportunities for future collaboration across GEO activities and regional GEOs working on this thematic. In the context of the UN Decade of Ocean Sciences for Sustainable Development\, the event supports the Decade outcome a “safe ocean” and links to the Ocean Decade programmes such as CoastPredict and CEOS COAST. \nClick here to register for event on the GEO Week 2021 website. \nProgramme\nEvent moderator – Audrey Hasson GEO Blue Planet EU coordinator/ Mercator Ocean International \n11:00 – 11:15 CET Introduction \nA global overview of marine hazards in Africa – Carlos Loureiro\, University of KwaZulu-Natal\, South Africa \nLocal perspective\, what issues are faced: \n\nSeychelles- Justin Prosper\, Ministry of Environment\nSenegal  – Amadou Moctar Dieye\, Centre de Suivi Ecologique (CSE)\n\n11:15 – 11:35 CET Addressing coastal pollution (plastic litter\, oil spill\, agricultural run off…) \n\n\n\nAfriGEO – Phoebe Oduor (Regional Centre for Mapping of Resources for Development)\nGEO Blue Planet – Kwame Adu Agyekum (University of Ghana)\nGEO Digital Earth Africa – Adam Lewis\nGEO Working Group on Disaster Risk Reduction – David Borges (NASA\, USA)\nGEO Human Planet – Daniele Ehrlich (European Commission)\n\n\n\n11:35 – 11:50 CET Panel discussion \nOrganisers\n\nGEO Blue Planet\nAfriGEO\nGEO Human Planet\nGEO Disaster Risk Reduction Working Group\nGEO Digital Earth Africa\nMercator Ocean International – EU4OceanObs project\n\n  \nReplay of the event on Youtube
