The International Coral Reef Society (ICRS) Student and Early Career Chapter (SECC) Skills and Professional Development (SPD) and Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) committees are excited to present the Indigenous & Local Coral Scientists Panel. This workshop aims to explore and celebrate the contributions of scientists who are indigenous and local to coral reef-inhabited regions.
The panel will feature four indigenous & local scientists: Anela Akiona (Hawaii, UCSD Scripps), Shamoy Bideau (St Croix & St Lucia, Tysam Tech), Ahmyia Cacapit (Guam, UCSD Scripps), & Kaiku Kaholoaa (Hawaii, Stanford). The panel will be moderated by Daniel Olivares-Zambrano (ICRS SPD committee) and Emily Chei (ICRS EDI committee), who will engage with the panelists on challenges faced by indigenous scientists, the importance of cultural diversity in scientific research, and strategies to foster collaboration and inclusivity within the marine ecology community.
We are excited to solicit questions from the audience ahead of time, which will be collated by the moderators. Please add your questions here:
