Getting close to the end of my PhD 🌊 Thesis writing in full swing and I’ve finally uploaded the case study reports that form the foundation of my chapters. Link here to research page 👉 researchportal.plymouth.ac.uk/en/persons/k...

Spent Friday at RGS-IBG “On the Sea Edge,” two inspiring, creative workshops. In between, went hunting for a sea edge in landlocked Birmingham. Closest we got was a pond at the Botanical Gardens, but it did the trick. Thanks to Katharine, Ashita & Carolina for a brilliant space. #RGSIBG2025

Highlights from the MARE people and the sea conference = presenting with friends and discusing transdisciplinarity @marecentre.bsky.social

It was great to be able to join the @naturalengland.bsky.social Marine Conference last week hosted at @plymuni.bsky.social and share my UK case studies for my PhD research on mechanisms for #TransformativeOceanGovernance

Great talks this evening focusing on ocean optimism from Emma Sheehan and @bd-stew.bsky.social hosted by OCT at the National Marine Aquarium. Amazing backdrop, although I did it get distracted by the fish #oceanoptimism

We need local knowledge, not just science - great talk from @kizzybeau.bsky.social of @plymuni.bsky.social at Saltash Sailing Club tonight.
