For the Workshop session in the afternoon, you will be able to choose two out of three possible workshops. Have a look at the workshop titles below and decide which are your preferred before you arrive so that you can sign up when you arrive.
Workshop 1: Science Communication
In this workshop you will learn how to effectively engage others with the Ocean and Ocean conservation.
Workshop 2: Life in our Ocean – Hot, Sour and Out of Breath
Discuss how low oxygen, low pH and high temperatures might affect marine life, and then compose a ‘hypothetical’ letter to our political leaders that explains how you see the issues and what you would like your leaders to do about it.
Workshop 3: Aliens in the Water
Explore how introduced, invasive species can impact native marine wildlife and how we live our lives. Learn how this will be affected by changing seas and what YOU can do to help.
