Engaging and Mapping Ocean Actors
Access to information, knowledge and ocean expertise is often fragmented and scattered – in terms of territory, discipline and between a diverse range of ocean stakeholders. This is a challenge to research and decision-making communities in finding, collaborating, and synthesizing the knowledge needed to address complex social-ecological issues for implementing the ecosystem approach, enhancing ocean governance, and otherwise contributing to a sustainable ocean future. All ocean actors hold some knowledge that is key to tailor research and decision-making - we wish to make you and your knowledge accessible to ocean colleagues. FOA seeks to respond to the expressed need of those involved with ocean management and ocean-related knowledge building and governance to understand who is doing what, where, when, how, and what for? so that actionable solutions are delivered and governance is enhanced.
