+ | |||
+ | On 15 January 2015 a group of 16 people came together for a day-long [[workshop 201501|workshop]] at the Gulbenkian Foundation in London to co-create a range of scenarios for Marine CoLABoration. The aim of the workshop was for participants to get to know each other as creative individuals and glimpse their shared vision(s) for the initiative. Consideration of the oceans inevitably surfaces many ' | ||
+ | |||
+ | We began by we looking at how Marine CoLAB could change the world - from individual, collective and global perspectives, | ||
+ | |||
+ | We talked about what we know, presume and don’t know about valuing the oceans. It was apparent that there is a lot of knowledge about oceans in the group, but also some confusion about what ' | ||

+ | Based on these two drivers, we created four scenarios and asked how Marine CoLAB would change the world in four quite different yet possible futures. What emerged were a few interesting directions, each of which involved changing the world through establishing or strengthening connections. Marine CoLab was creating links between the ocean and society, between governments and corporations, | ||

+ | === Workshop #2 - March 2015 === | ||
+ | |||
+ | The second workshop of the Marine CoLAB builds on ideas and suggestions that emerged during the first meeting in January. In the second workshop we looked at what the participants want to contribute to Marine CoLAB, which challenges and hypotheses are present in the group and which specific experiments can be designed to respond to these challenges. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The challenges that emerged from the participants current work and discussions during the workshop included systemic change and connecting disparate actions and experiments, | ||
