This week, we'll first hear from Christina Hoefsmit in her talk entitled, Do You Have a Flag? ARctic Governance and the Perceived "Race" for Resources. She has put her background in climate change law and policy to good use this year working for the U.S. Coast Guard within the Marine Transportation System Directorate and will teach us all about the geopolitical challenges of decreasing sea ice coverage in the arctic and how those issues are relevant to management in the Southern Hemisphere.
Next, we'll here from Becky Blanchard in her discussion of Danger, Desire, and Governance: A Political Ecology of Vibrio vulnificus. Her work with an oyster community in Florida exemplifies interdisciplinary study and will certainly help us learn about the social impacts of management decisions and lethal bacteria! As we get ready to wrap up the fellowship, use this opportunity to recognize all of our great accomplishments - past, present, and future!
See you there!
