The Fascinating Origins of the 'Ocean Decade Programme' | Ocean Decade Show!

On this last episode of the first year of the Ocean Decade, Taylor’s digging into one of the most innovative, but also old school, programmes of the Ocean Decade - Ocean Corps. Harkening back to John F. Kennedy’s Peace Corps, the Ocean Corps intends to be a conveyor belt of global ocean science exchange to inspire sustained, long-term ocean science education and research collaborations between nations. Taylor talks to two of the brains behind the Ocean Corps Programme - Brian Arbic and Edem Mahu - to learn more about the origins of this Ocean Decade Programme and why ocean science capacity development is so crucial to the goals and objectives of the next ten years.
