Webinar Description:
The MEOPAR OA Community of Practice (CoP) was formed in 2018, with the overarching goal of sharing knowledge and improving linkages between OA knowledge creators and end-users across Canada. The OA CoP is led by two Co-Leads, Dr. Helen Gurney-Smith (DFO) and Dr. Brent Else (University of Calgary), and a Coordinator, Dr. Kristina Barclay (University of Calgary, MEOPAR), with guidance from an interdisciplinary Steering Committee from across the country. OA CoP objectives include the development of (1) knowledge transfer and community engagement via accessible content, (2) resources and databases, and (3) best-practices for data collection and sharing involving research groups, stake-holders, and community-based research. In this webinar, Dr. Barclay will present some of the key activities to date. This includes new online resources and blog series, as well as updates on the development of future projects. The GOA-ON webinar series has four sponsoring organizations: (1) GOA-ON, the Global Ocean Acidification Observing Network, (2) NOAA, the United States National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration, (3) IAEA OA-ICC, the International Atomic Energy Agency – Ocean Acidification International Coordination Centre, and (4) IOC-UNESCO – the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.
