Bonjour,
Nous avons le plaisir d’annoncer notre prochain CESABINAR, qui aura lieu le jeudi 16 octobre de 15h à 16h15 (heure de Paris). Jessica Blythe (Brock University, St Catharines, Canada) et David Gill (Duke University, Beaufort, USA) nous présenteront le travail du groupe BLUE JUSTICE :
Advancing ocean equity at the nexus of development, climate and conservation policy.

Abstract :
Ocean inequity is rising, with the benefits of marine resources increasingly concentrated among a few, while vulnerable coastal communities bear the greatest burdens. Addressing this challenge requires solutions that explicitly integrate equity, tackling the roots of structural imbalances rather than treating inequity as a secondary concern. The Blue Justice working group, supported by the Fondation pour la Recherche sur la Biodiversité (FRB) through its CESAB program, has advanced this agenda through research on the intersection of development, climate, and conservation policies.
Evidence shows that coastal communities face compounded pressures from climate change, blue growth initiatives, and conservation efforts, which can exacerbate social inequities and undermine resilience. This seminar will highlight pathways for promoting fairness and sustainability in ocean governance, emphasize inclusive decision-making, and introduce a novel tool for measuring and advancing ocean equity. The discussion will also showcase the role of grassroots resistance and community-led strategies in fostering justice, well-being, and resilience across ocean-dependent communities.

L’objectif de ces séminaires est de présenter les principaux résultats des groupes Cesab une fois leur résidence terminée. Nous souhaitons également ouvrir ces webinaires à l’ensemble de la communauté scientifique et les annoncerons sur les principaux canaux scientifiques. Ils sont en anglais, n’hésitez pas à les promouvoir dans vos réseaux.
Les CESABINARs durent environ 1 heure : 40 minutes de présentation et 20 minutes de questions, en se laissant de la marge au niveau des échanges.
De nouveau, cette séance sera enregistrée puis mise en ligne sur la chaîne Youtube de la FRB.

Dear all,
We are very pleased to announce our next online CESABINAR, which will take place on Thurs October 16th at 3:00 pm, Paris time. Jessica Blythe (Brock University, St Catharines, Canada) and David Gill (Duke University, Beaufort, USA) will present the work of the BLUE JUSTICE group: Advancing ocean equity at the nexus of development, climate and conservation policy.

The aim of these CESABINARS is to present the main results of the working groups once they finish a CESAB cycle. They last about 1 hour: 40 minutes of presentation and 20 minutes of questions, perhaps a bit more. The CESABINARs are open to the whole scientific community, to the participants of the CESAB groups and to the FRB network. They are in English, so don’t hesitate to promote them in your networks.
In case you miss it, this session (and all the other ones whenever possible) will be recorded and shared on the FRB’s Youtube channel.
