A Regional Training Workshop on ‘Observing the Coastal and Marginal Seas in the Western Indian Ocean’ will be organised in a hybrid format on 7^th - 9^th June, 2022. The workshop is organised by the CLIVAR/IOC-GOOS Indian Ocean Region Panel (IORP), with support from the Partnership for Observation of the Global Ocean (POGO) and the ReMoTURB Project (in turn supported by the Mozambican Oceanographic Institute (InOM, former IIP) and Nelson Mandela University (NMU) in South Africa). This workshop will encourage the countries bordering the western Indian Ocean (including marginal seas) to be engaged in coastal observing programs and research as effective partners, and will also identify the training needs and capacity building in the participating countries and provide the opportunity for starting countries to learn from others who have already established programs.

The workshop will be a hybrid format with three components taking place simultaneously – physical workshop venues in Maputo, Mozambique, virtual attendance and presentation in Kuwait, and global virtual attendance.

The registration for this workshop is now open: https://www.wjx.cn/vj/Oce5aH3.aspx

Deadline for registration: 25 March 2022
