Round Table Guest Chat and Discussion with Tutorial group

This unit considers the role of the environmental advocate involved in marine and coastal conservation. Students learn to identify and critically analyse the role of the environmental advocate including non-governmental organisations, government and community stakeholders, and proponents of marine use and development, whilst considering how to improve marine and coastal conservation. Students are introduced to communication and advocacy skills related to submission preparation and dispute resolution.

Co-facilitator, with installation artist Dr. Jen Brown of two differently themed "speed meetings-matings!":

Speed Meetings This session of speed meetings works with the theme of 'resilience' to facilitate focused networking among conference participants. It will provide an opportunity to get to know one another, form bonds, inspire further talk throughout the conference, swap emails, check out websites, go to specific presentations, share publications, and dialogue with others. We hope this may inspire some longer-term creative collaborations that can transcend diverse locations and cultures.

Momentum Speed Meetings This session of speed meetings works with the theme of 'momentum' to facilitate focused networking among conference participants. It provides an opportunity to get to know one another, form bonds, inspire further talk throughout the conference, swap emails, check out websites, go to specific presentations, share publications, and dialogue with others. We hope this may inspire some longer-term creative collaborations that can transcend diverse locations and cultures.
