Published on May 2024, this blog highlights the Ocean Literacy Dialogues, where Hub researchers participated in several events. Dylan McGarry, a co-founder of Empatheatre, collaborated with UNESCO on “Social sculpture – Empathy in the time of ecological Apartheid.” Hub Director Elisa Morgera co-discussed at a panel on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusivity values following the screening of “Mapping for Justice,” and later, alongside McGarry and Empatheatre co-founder Mpume Mthombeni, led a group activity. McGarry also presented a paper titled “Adjusting the weave of Ocean Literacy in South Africa” during a panel on innovation within ocean literacy, co-researched with Anna James, advocating for a shift from ocean literacy to ocean fluency. Additionally, early-career researcher Nina Rivers spoke at a panel on ocean literacy and communication, all in collaboration with the UNESCO Ocean Literacy Dialogues.
