 ==== Agenda ====
-In the morning the participants focused om Marine CoLAB as a whole. Beginning with reflecting on **Marine CoLAB so far**: what worked and what needs more work. Grounded in this experience they moved into a visioning process lead by Giles to clarify the overall **Marine CoLAB vision and mission**. At the end of the morning Sue took the group through a beautiful presentation and discussion of the **values based approach**, as a lens that can be used to shape and evaluate projects, experiments and the initiative itself. In the afternoon, the focus was on **Marine CoLAB project incubator**, beginning with a broad mapping of existing and emerging projects by participating organisations which could be relevant to Marine CoLAB facilitated by Aniol. Two following sessions discussed the two projects that emerged from previous workshops: possible directions for GameOn guided by Sandy and a working/planning session for the Plastic Bottles project lead by Heather. At the end of the day we came back to **Marine CoLAB's future in 2016**.

-  * Create a thought piece explaining something like "this is the benefit of 12 months of Marine CoLAB", using the plastics project and other key outcomes as milestones.

-(cross reference with Aniol's notes)
+Mapping existing and emerging projects by organisations as a way to identify strategic lines of work for Marine CoLAB
-  * ways to identify strategic lines of work
+The participants identified three main groupings for projects
-  * list of relevant projects
-    * marine safe
-    * coastal partnership network
-    * Thames river academy (educational projects)
-    * beach watch
-    * capturing the value of our coast (citizen science, data collection)
-    * capacity building at FFI (new educational programmes, masters, adult ed. etc)
-    * strengthening NGO capacity in Portugal (aniol)
-    * common ground (community voice project followup, biz case for marine resource mgmt)
-    * MPA programme (increase in capacity for creating marine protected areas)
-    * (FFI co-management approach)
-    * sustainable seafood in Portugal (MCS & Client Earth - reducing unlawful fishing)
-    * ocean schools (ocean awareness as part of general knowledge, general education)
-    * #oceanoptismism (changing narrative around oceans -> more focus on successes & communication of best practice)
-    * Blue New Deal
-    * diverting EU marine funding to 'good things' (European funding opportunities)
-  * three main groupings
     * opportunities around MPA & spatial planning, policy related
     * schools, training & educational projects
     * exporting knowledge & support / capacity building
-  * (global wave conference)
-  * capturing the value of our coast -> possible focus for various experiments, data collection & value testing
-  * rethinking projects in terms of value lens, changes of impact with contributions from other partners
-  * time-line and potential interactions between projects (dependencies....)
-  * next steps
+List of relevant projects
-    * find specific ways for marine colab to inform existing and new projects, either as advisers,
-    * write up value space for each project -> further mapping
+== MPA and spatial planning ==
-    * Aniol to compile & reformat existing info by end of the week
+  * [[http://www.marinesafe.org/|Marine Safe]]; a campaign to remove pollutants from personal care products
-    * edits, additions and value prompt to be submitted by Dec. 4th
+  * Common ground: [[http://www.sussex-ifca.gov.uk/repository/230115_Merged%20outputs_For%20web+participants.pdf|Community Voice Project]] followup, business case for marine resource management
+  * MPA campaign/programme at MCS: increase in capacity for creating marine protected areas, funded opportunity to experiment, potential involvement of Marine CoLAB; engage public in new ways and extend staff capacity
+  * Sustainable seafood in Portugal, Spain and EU (NEF, MCS & Client Earth - reducing unlawful fishing; scoping, looking at minimal standards for the seafood industry; including different stakeholders (policy, communities, judges), starting from holistic values and working on changing rules and compliance
+  * [[http://www.bluenewdeal.org/|Blue New Deal]], a possible platform to carry MarCoLab stories.

+    * Edits, additions and value prompt to be submitted by Dec. 4th
+    * (cross reference these notes with Aniol's notes)
+    * Next workshop:
