Ocean Health/Human Health

Catalog description

The United Nations designated this decade (2021-2030) as the Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development to highlight the needs and mechanisms to reverse the decline in ocean health. This course will focus on the most pressing issues that intersect ocean health, human health, and local/global economics. We will explore, discuss, and debate the science and policies behind what led us to our current situation and what can possibly be done as the international community moves forward.
