A Capacity Building Program and Dialogue to Bridge Scientist and Policymakers in the Marine and Maritime Space
Funding Agency: The Asia Foundation
Program Leader: Deo Florence Onda, Ph.D.
Project Duration: March 16, 2024 to March 31, 2025
Project Objectives:
The overall objective of this activity is to bridge marine scientists and policymakers and improve how both will tackle maritime policies that can benefit from scientific understanding (science for policy); and policies that will improve the conduct or use of scientific research in the Philippines (policy for science). It is also the objective of this undertaking to:
Encourage mutual understanding between marine scientists, policy researchers, and policymakers;
Establish working links and communication lines between marine scientific community and policymaking sectors;
For policymakers and researchers to effectively utilize and develop science-based policy formulation related to their policy areas;
For marine scientists to be able to provide information and communicate scientific evidence and data to the policies pursued;
Gain an understanding of policy analysis and development process;
Identify priority policies that will benefit and encourage the conduct and use of high-quality and impactful marine scientific research;
