Tuesday, October 21, 12:00h – 14:00h (lunch time)
Description: In 2017, GlobalHAB was designated a SCOR-IOC programme whose primary mission is to address the contemporary scientific and societal challenges of HABs by adopting a multidisciplinary approach through the evaluation and application of new advanced technologies, training and capacity building, and information and dissemination requirements. The programme has become synonymous with cutting-edge science co-designed for local, regional, national, and global decision-making on all topics pertaining to HABs. The widest international participation of the research community and stakeholders is essential to ensure the success of another ten years of the GlobalHAB programme. The influx of complementary global initiatives, such as the UN Decade of the Ocean, offers the GlobalHAB Scientific Steering Committee (SSC) an ideal landscape for shaping the next era of GlobalHAB activities. ICHA attendees are invited to join the SSC at this special town hall to provide feedback on new activities proposed in The Next Ten Years of GlobalHAB (2026-2035:) Science and Implementation Plan.
Program
