Achieving justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion requires the marine and Great Lakes community examine its decision-making and power structures to ensure access to the resources, benefits, and opportunities that come from those structures. CHOW\u2019s opening plenary will look at the historical lack of inclusion and the failure to center justice and equity in ocean and coastal conservation. The plenary will discuss how the broader ocean and Great Lakes community can work together toward collective action and equitable outcomes in the future.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Opening Remarks<\/span><\/em>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Brenda Mallory, JD<\/strong>, Chair, White House Council on Environmental Quality\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moderator<\/span><\/i><\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Yoshitaka Ota, Ph.D.<\/strong>, Director, Nippon Foundation Ocean Nexus Center, University of Washington EarthLab\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Speakers<\/span><\/i><\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Michael E.

While NOAA has made significant strides in this area, JEDI work is an ongoing process and never truly completed. Nicole LeBoeuf (Acting Assistant Administrator for Ocean Services and Coastal Zone Management, NOAA) will be moderating a panel discussion on advancing JEDI efforts within NOAA. The panelists are advocates and leaders in JEDI initiatives at NOAA and bring unique perspectives on the work that still needs to be done. This breakout session will be a frank conversation between these leaders on the successes they\u2019ve experienced and where they\u2019ve faced challenges.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><em>Speakers<\/em><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Nicole R.

There, the islands and the communities that live on them face disproportionate climate impacts because of their size, low elevation, relatively remote geographical location, and concentration of coastal infrastructures. Yet, they remain on the periphery of U.S. ocean and climate policy. The panel will discuss the specific ocean and climate issues facing island communities including public health, ocean and climate impacts, management of natural resources and how these islands' people are rising to meet the challenges in their own communities.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\"><em>Opening Remarks<\/em>\u00a0<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\"><strong>The Honorable Gregorio Kilili Camacho Sablan<\/strong>,\u00a0 U.S. House of Representatives, Northern Marianas Islands\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>The Honorable Aumua Amata Coleman Radewagen<\/strong>,\u00a0 U.S. House of Representatives, American Samoa\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\"><strong>The Honorable Jenniffer Gonz\u00e1lez-Col\u00f3n<\/strong>,\u00a0 U.S. House of Representatives, Puerto Rico\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moderator<\/span><\/i><\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Esther Kia\u2019aina<\/strong>, Executive Director, Pacific Basin Development Council<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Speakers\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/i><\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\"><strong>The Honorable Talauega Eleasalo Vaalele Ale<\/strong>, Lieutenant Governor of American Samoa\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\"><strong>The Honorable Sheila Babauta<\/strong>, Chair, Natural Resources Committee, Northern Marianas Commonwealth Legislature\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Kemit-Amon Lewis<\/strong>,\u00a0Marine Scientist, Perry Institute for Marine Science <\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Lirio M\u00e1rquez-D'Acunti<\/strong>, Executive Director, Vieques Conservation and Historical Trust <\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Austin J.

It also perpetuates egregious human rights abuses through human trafficking, forced labor, and hazardous work conditions. Combatting IUU fishing is a difficult task due to the remote maritime regions where it occurs. Difficulty in identifying and tracking vessels engaged in illicit fishing activities further complicates direct enforcement actions and effective policies to prevent and deter these activities from continuing. Innovative commercial technologies may offer potent tools to government agencies such as NOAA and the U.S. Coast Guard to overcome these barriers to effective enforcement and deterrence. This panel will discuss some of the commercial technologies currently being evaluated and used by federal agencies to crack down on IUU fishing and its associated human rights abuses. Panel members will also discuss the potential for expanded public-private partnerships to leverage commercial capabilities in the fight against forced labor and human trafficking on IUU vessels.<\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><em>Speakers<\/em>:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Sally Yozell<\/strong>, Senior Fellow and Director, Environmental Security program, Stimson Center (moderator)<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>John Serafini<\/strong>, CEO, HawkEye 360<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Erik Friesen<\/strong>, Solutions Engineer, Planet<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Johan Bergenas<\/strong>, Senior Vice President for Oceans, World Wildlife Fund-US (WWF-US)<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>James Chang<\/strong>, Senior Oceans and Environment Policy Adviser, Senator Brian Schatz (D-HI)<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul><\/p><p><i class=\"fa fa-lg fa-clock-o\"><\/i> <span class=\"small\">45 mins<\/span><\/p>  \n                                                                                            \n                                <\/div>\n                                \n                                <div class=\"col-lg-3 col-md-3 col-sm-10\"><\/div>\n                                \n                            <\/div>\n                        <\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"panel panel-default\">\n                    \n                    <div class=\"panel-heading\" role=\"tab\" id=\"heading-1312\">\n                        <div class=\"row\">\n\n                            <div class=\"col-lg-1 col-md-1 col-sm-1\">\n                                <p class=\"date\">12:15<\/p>\n                            <\/div>\n                            \n                            <div class=\"col-lg-11 col-md-11 col-sm-11\">\n                                \n                                <h4 class=\"panel-title\">\n                                    <a data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#accordion\" href=\"#1312\" aria-expanded=\"true\" aria-controls=\"1312\">\n                                    [Partner Breakout] Engaging All Audiences and Communities for Ocean Conservation\n                                    <\/a>\n                                <\/h4>\n\n                            <\/div>\n\n                        <\/div>\n                    <\/div><div id=\"1312\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"1312\">\n          \n                                        \n                        <div class=\"panel-body\">\n                            <div class=\"row\"><div class=\"col-lg-7 col-md-7 col-sm-10\">\n                                    <h4>[Partner Breakout] Engaging All Audiences and Communities for Ocean Conservation<\/h4>\n                                    <p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><em>Hosted by NOAA Office of National Marine Sanctuaries<\/em><\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #ffffff;\">The Office of National Marine Sanctuaries (ONMS) works to engage, inspire, and connect people with national marine sanctuaries and spark wonder in visitors young and old.

CHOW has always been a place to convene people who care about our ocean and Great Lakes to have meaningful conversations. This year, it offers opportunities to reflect, listen and learn to better understand how each of us can be stronger advocates.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #b0b0b0;\">Achieving bold, lasting change in ocean, coastal, and Great Lakes policy will require us all to listen to the wisdom, perspectives and values of the communities carrying the greatest burdens of environmental inequities. CHOW 2021 offers an opportunity to examine how exclusionary practices and systemic racism negatively impact conservation, science, and policy. And, how anti-oppression and anti-racism work will improve the health and quality of life of people, as well as the sustainability of our ocean, coasts, and Great Lakes and the communities that depend on them.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #b0b0b0;\">The CHOW 2021 program will explore how the environmental racism and climate injustices people and communities experience perpetuates disproportionate climate burdens, making them more vulnerable to the climate crisis. It will also explore how leaders across the nation are advancing local, regional, and national efforts to identify potential strategies to address the consequences of a rapidly warming planet. This is an opportunity for people who are passionate about the environment, specifically ocean-Great Lakes-climate action, to gather and discuss how to deepen justice and equity in our field. And we will learn from many of the leaders who have been at the helm of environmental and climate justice work and others who are just getting started. Only in learning can the conservation community advance the commitments necessary to grow a more racially just and equitable movement.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"color: #b0b0b0;\">The National Marine Sanctuary Foundation is not a leader in this space, though we see our role as a convener and in time, an active ally. As an organization, we are at the beginning of our own internal work.

It is an opportunity for people who are passionate about the environment, specifically ocean-Great Lakes-climate action, to gather and discuss how to deepen justice and equity in our field. And we will learn from many of the leaders who have been at the helm of environmental and climate justice work in ocean and Great Lakes conservation and others who are just getting started.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Q: What is the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation\u2019s role?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>A:<\/strong> The National Marine Sanctuary Foundation is a leading voice for US protected waters, working with communities to conserve and expand these vital areas for a healthy ocean, coasts, and Great Lakes. The National Marine Sanctuary Foundation works in collaboration with community members, non-profits, universities and businesses in communities located near national marine sanctuaries on conservation, research and public outreach projects.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">As it relates to Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (JEDI), the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation is not a leader in this space, though we see our role as this week\u2019s convener and in time, an active ally in pursuit of equitable policy, an inclusive ocean and Great Lakes conservation movement and supporters for justice. As an organization, we are at the beginning of our own internal work. We are learning and taking accountability for the work we haven\u2019t done to date in this important space.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">The National Marine Sanctuary Foundation\u2019s work is to connect people to the ocean, coasts, and Great Lakes through our national marine sanctuaries and monuments. We cannot achieve that mission as an organization or as a part of the conservation community without taking the time to learn and listen together.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Q: Is the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation fundraising off of Justice, Equity Diversity and Inclusion (JEDI)?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>A:<\/strong> Capitol Hill Ocean Week is a free conference made possible by funds the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation raises to ensure access by all who would like to attend this annual event. In the coming months, the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation will seek funds for its own internal organizational JEDI work that is separate from its annual conference.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><b data-stringify-type=\"bold\">Q: How does Capitol Hill Ocean Week sponsorship work? Are conference sponsors vetted to ensure they are actively practicing and upholding Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion values?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><b data-stringify-type=\"bold\">A:<\/b> Capitol Hill Ocean Week is an annual event that has remained free and open to the public year after year due to many sponsors underwriting the conference at varying levels. These are sponsors who the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation solicits funding from to cover the cost of programming, venue and\/or virtual platform costs, and staff time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">Participants attending CHOW 2021 have raised concerns that there are conference sponsors with troubling diversity and discrimination issues, those who rely on colonial science (parachute science) and problematic conservation practices, some of which haven\u2019t been publicly addressed, worked on, or resolved. CHOW is a convening space. We do not endorse or affirm that each individual sponsor is free of these practices. It is our deepest hope that our sponsor partners are committed to doing their own internal work, as we have our own to do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Q: Is the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation occupying space intended for others by focusing Capitol Hill Ocean Week on JEDI in the ocean and Great Lakes conservation?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>A:<\/strong> For two decades, it has been our privilege, role and responsibility to convene Capitol Hill Ocean Week. As the Capitol Hill Ocean Week Advisory Committee, composed of 11 individuals, not including the consultant team at Meridian and National Marine Sanctuary Foundation staff, looked at the opportunity to elevate issues of race, equity and inclusion, it knew the theme of this conference could not be business-as-usual in 2021.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">It is the role and responsibility of the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation to have the annual conference address some of the most critical issues in ocean and Great Lakes conservation. In our present role, the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation is the convenor of Capitol Hill Ocean Week, affectionately known as CHOW. The voices of experts and several community leaders involved are driving the topics and discussions of this event.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\">The National Marine Sanctuary Foundation staff recognize that we must address our JEDI work and we are at the beginnings of our own internal journey. As an organization, we will examine our own mistakes, decenter ourselves, and work to become active allies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>Q: Why is the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation focusing on JEDI now?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff;\"><strong>A:<\/strong> It has never been more important to recognize the need to build racial justice, gender and social equality, and incorporate these into our core values. The communities of ocean and Great Lakes advocates, community organizers, scientists and practitioners in this field, nor ourselves, are exempt from this critical time of reflection and action. We must join actively to listen, learn and engage in these conversations.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_section full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; el_id=&#8221;speakers&#8221;
