Join us on the first Wednesday of every month for an ECOP event series that digs into the European marine science policy landscape!
The EMB ECOP Network was initiated in March 2022 by the EMB Young Ambassadors and the EMB Secretariat. It is designed to bring together Early Career Ocean Professionals (ECOPs) who are linked to the EMB Member Organizations, and provide them with a platform to meet, interact, learn, and have a voice.
The ECOP Wednesday event series is aimed specifically at the EMB ECOP Network, and focuses on the European and international marine science policy landscape. Held over lunch on the first Wednesday of every month, these one hour online events give attendees a chance to learn more about this complex landscape and interact with research and policy professionals and other stakeholders working within it.
The ECOP Wednesdays series provides members of this network with an opportunity to learn more about the wider context of their own research, and about different aspects of the European and international marine science policy. It is also an opportunity to connect with others who have an interest in this field. This monthly online event series is free of charge. The events include speakers working within different fields of marine science policy, and attendees will have an opportunity to ask questions and engage in discussion. These events will also bring opportunities to discuss and debate on the present state and future of this landscape.
