Contributors needed for Virtual Early Career Ocean Professionals Day (June 1st to 2nd)

Hi all,

This may be of interest to those of you who are marine focussed! It's not an event I am running, but if you have any questions I can put you in touch with the organisers. I've also attached their marketing cards in case you'd like to pass on to your networks and colleagues. 

Save the Date!
The Virtual Early Career Ocean Professional (V.ECOP) Day will be held June 1, 2021, immediately following the kick-off of the First International Conference of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development.

As an official UN Ocean Decade Activity, V.ECOP Day is a 24-hour livestream event following the sun around the globe. Hosted by and for international Early Career Ocean Professionals from a wide variety of disciplines, these future leaders and experts will present their work, activities, and contributions to the UN Ocean Decade and explore what's next in this dynamic field.
