| ‘Valuing the Ocean’ is an initiative of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation that aims to enhance the environmental sector's capacity to communicate the role of the ocean for human wellbeing, in particular by facilitating a collaboration between the fields of natural science and economics. The Foundation’s London branch has decided to take a laboratory approach with Marine CoLABoration to foster engagement and a shared, co-created vision. | ‘Valuing the Ocean’ is an initiative of the [[http://www.gulbenkian.pt/Institucional/en/Homepage|Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation]] that aims to enhance the environmental sector's ability to communicate the role of the ocean for human wellbeing, in particular by facilitating a collaboration between the fields of natural science and economics.

| 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 'big' problems, which can often benefit from multiple perspectives to incite meaningful change. Thus the workshop explored the nature of value, economic and social assumptions which impact the significance and complexity of the issues involved. Scenarios were developed which explored more sustainable economic and governance systems as the world experiences continued effects of climate change. | 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.
