Innovative Panel at the Earth System Governance Conference 2021- Bratislava United Nations Negotiations for the Future of Marine Biodiversity: A conversation among Academics and Practitioners on the BBNJ Negotiations

Tuesday, September 7 2.30- 4.00 pm (CEST)

This innovative panel contributes to an inter-and transdisciplinary dialogue on the BBNJ negotiations by bringing together researchers and practitioners to discuss developments, results and learnings of the negotiations. We invite scholars studying the BBNJ negotiations and the various actors, including national delegates, as well as representatives of intergovernmental- and non-governmental organizations that are participating in the negotiations: 1) to discuss the current stage of the BBNJ negotiations, the potential final agreement and the role of the intersessional work; 2) to share their expert knowledge and experiences on the current state and development of the BBNJ negotiations; 3) to reflect on new findings of BBNJ research and current political developments within the BBNJ process.

Chairs:  Assoc.- Prof. Dr. Alice Vadrot, University of Vienna (alice.vadrot@univie.ac.at) & Ina Tessnow-von Wysocki, University of Vienna (ina.tessnow-vonwysocki@univie.ac.at)
