Podcast appearances and mentions of John A Knauss

On this episode of The Ocean Decade Show, Taylor interviews her great-grandchild - her John A. Knauss Fellow great grandchild that is! Celina Harris, the current Ocean Decade Knauss Fellow working to organize the growing number of U.S. partners as we're making our way toward the midpoint of the Decade. Celina shared about her journey from academia to attending COP27 in Glasgow, Scotland to her role at NOAA Research now. Taylor and Celina do a lot of compare and contrast - comparing their time working on the Decade in 2020 to today, and the importance of partners in the achievement of the Decade Challenges. 

This month's episode of The Ocean Decade Show is all about Ocean Decade organization! Using the United States as the first (and hopefully not last!) case study, Taylor and guest Theresa Keith, current John A. Knauss Marine Policy Fellow for the Ocean Decade at NOAA Research, go over how the U.S. is organizing itself for the Ocean Decade. Although not a “one-size-fits-all” example, the dual approach for the U.S., composed of a White House-level interagency working group alongside an outside-of-government National Committee, has been a successful approach to ensure widespread Decade participation. Taylor and Theresa discuss the pros and cons, and go over what's next for the U.S. as we near the end of the first year of the Ocean Decade. Come for the organizational tips, and stay for the witty banter between two Knauss fellows!

Dr. Elle Wibisono, a John A. Knauss Marine Policy Fellow with the United States Senate, joined us to talk about her experience working on ocean and coastal policy issues.
