Nawras seminar: Data science and the marine environment

,

On Monday 2 October 2023, a seminar was held in Marrakech on the Nawras project, led by Marie Bonnin, an IRD researcher at LEMAR, and Jihad Zahir from Cadi Ayyad University.

The aim of the seminar was to present the opportunities for collaboration between the IRD and Cadi Ayyad University in the field of data sciences and the marine environment. It brought together 15 researchers from different organisations in Marrakech, Essaouira and Safi, from Cadi Ayyad University and the Institut de Recherche pour le Développement, from different disciplines (IT, law, ecology, biogeochemistry). Each institute and organisation was able to present its link with data sciences and/or the marine environment, as well as current projects, in order to highlight opportunities for collaboration and to facilitate the co-supervision of short-term internships. The participants concluded that the opportunities for collaboration were real and stimulating, and that bilateral exchanges should enable the first collaborations to be set up quickly.
