The workshop “MSP in tropical Atlantic: governance dynamics” aims to share experiences on Marine Spatial Planning in Europe and Brazil.
It will be centred on a legal and socio-political perspective, to better understand (emerging) policy practices, processes and institutional contexts enabling and/or constraining MSP
governance dynamics in the transboundary, North-South Atlantic context.
Four sessions will be organised over the two days of the workshop:
This workshop is organized by the PADDLE project. with the help and support of:
MSP in tropical Atlantic: governance dynamics
International workshop In Recife, Brazil, UFPE, Feb. 4-5, 2019
Alison Antes asks the question: What are the decisions and behaviours that allow innovative, rigorous and ethical research to be conducted in our laboratories and institutions? And she notes that many people in managerial positions have limited knowledge about how to create healthy and dynamic working conditions (“healthy workplace”). I’m not sure that this can really be learned in managerial training. How to foster good team dynamics? How to be engaged on a daily basis, accessible and aware of the need to maintain a good working atmosphere?
I will not paraphrase here her paper or the 6 main tasks she suggests to all scientists in a position of responsibility. Acting to establish good working conditions and relationships must be at the very beginning of our to-do list at all times. The title of his article is already a major program. For my part, I will have it displayed before my eyes on the wall above my desk.
An article that is a must read for all those in a managerial positions in the field of science!

With my best wishes for 2019!
Without in any way pretending to be an example, at both scientific and managerial levels, of the kind mentioned at the beginning of Alison Antes’ article in the journal Nature at the end of November (Antes, 2018), I found her paper particularly stimulating at this time of year, which is the perfect time to take good resolutions.
