Tiri kuedza kuvandudza mukati uye kunze. Ndinoda kugovera zvimwe zvishoma zvebasa redu.

Internships: Marine Pathways Chirongwa chinopa ma internship anobhadharwa kuvadzidzi veruvara vanopedza chirimo kana semesita vachidzidza nezve basa rekuchengetedza gungwa ratinoita uye nezve mabatiro anoita sangano risingabatsiri. Mumwe nemumwe anodzidzira basa anoitawo purojekiti yekutsvagisa-ichangoburwa intern akatsvaga uye akagadzirira mharidzo yenzira idzo TOF inogona kuwanikwa nyore kune vanhu vane maziso, emuviri, kana humwe hurema. Ndakadzidza zvakawanda kubva mumharidzo yake, sezvatakaita isu tese, uye, sechikamu chegadziriso yewebhusaiti yedu takatambira kurudziro yake yekuita kuti zvinyorwa zvedu zviwanikwe nevanhu vane hurema hwekuona.

Sezvatinotarisa kune yedu inotevera Marine Pathways interns, tinoda kupa mimwe mikana. Tiri kuyedza kufunga kuti tingaite sei kuti matinji edu ese asvike. Izvi zvinorevei? Muchikamu, zvinoreva kuti nezvidzidzo zvedenda, tinogona kukunda chipingamupinyi chakakura chinomiririrwa nemutengo wakakwira wedzimba munzvimbo yeDC nekugadzira ma internship ari musanganiswa wekure uye mu-munhu, nekupa mari mudzimba. , kana kuuya nemamwe mazano.

Kuungana kunowanikwa: Chidzidzo chimwe chete chatinogona kutora kubva padenda ndechekuti kuungana pamhepo kunodhura uye kunotora nguva shoma pane kufamba kumusangano wega wega. Ndinovimba kuti magungano ese emunguva yemberi achasanganisira chikamu chinobvumira vanhu kuti vapinde zvinenge-uye nokudaro kuwedzera kukwanisa kweavo vane zviwanikwa zvishoma kuti vapinde.

TOF ndiye aitsigira DEI uye akatsigira mashoko akakosha naDr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson kumusangano wenyika we2020 North American Association for Environmental Education, uyo wakaitwa. Dr. Johnson vachangopedza kugadzirisa bhuku Zvese Zvatinogona Kuchengeta, inotsanangurwa se "zvinyorwa zvinotsamwisa uye zvinovhenekera kubva kuvakadzi vari pamberi pesangano remamiriro ekunze vari kushandisa chokwadi, ushingi, uye mhinduro kutungamira vanhu mberi."

Sezvandataura, nzvimbo dzinoda shanduko dzakawanda. Takawana mukana wekuwedzera ruzivo pamusoro penyaya idzi. Muchinzvimbo changu sachigaro webhodhi reConfluence Philanthropy, sangano riri kushanda kuona kuti mapotifoliyo ekudyara anoratidza hunhu hwedu hwakaenzana, ndakakurudzira kuti musangano wedu wa2020 uitirwe muPuerto Rico, kupa vanoisa mari nevamwe kuzvionera voga kuti sei. Vanhu vokuPuerto Rican vokuAmerica vakabatwa zvisina kunaka nemasangano ezvemari, ehurumende, uye anobatsira vanhu, zvichiwedzera matambudziko anokonzerwa nechamupupuri chenjodzi mbiri uye kudengenyeka kwenyika.

Zvinechekuita neizvi, tiri kutsigira gwaro idzva rinodaidzwa kuti #PlasticJustice iro tinovimba richashanda sechishandiso chekudzidzisa uye nekukurudzira vanogadzira mitemo kuti vatore matanho. Semumwe muenzaniso, kune rimwe purojekiti, takakumbirwa kunyora gwaro remitemo yenyika kugadzirisa kusvibiswa kwepurasitiki. Iyi inogona kuve mikana mikuru yekuongorora nekudzivirira kukuvadzwa mune ramangwana-saka takava nechokwadi chekuisa zviga zvekugadzirisa nharaunda dzenharaunda dziri pedyo nenzvimbo dzekugadzira mapurasitiki, pakati pemamwe marongero ekudzivirira kumwe kukuvadza kunharaunda dzine njodzi.

Nekuti The Ocean Foundation isangano repasi rose, ini ndinofanira kufunga nezve DEIJ mumamiriro epasirese zvakare. Isu tinofanirwa kusimudzira kunzwisisa kwetsika dzepasirese, kusanganisira kuita vanhu veko kuti vaone kuti zvavanoda uye ruzivo rwechinyakare zvakabatanidzwa sei mubasa redu. Izvi zvinosanganisira kushandisa ruzivo rwemunharaunda kubatsira mubasa rako. Tinogona kubvunza kana hurumende dzichipa mhiri kwemakungwa rubatsiro zvakananga kuti dziri kutsigira kana kukanganisa DEIJ munyika dzatinoshanda—kodzero dzevanhu uye nheyo dzeDEIJ dzakafanana. Uye, uko TOF ine huvepo (sekuMexico) isu tinongoshandirwa nevakuru, kana kuti takaisa lenzi yeDEIJ mukuhaya vashandi kana makondirakiti? Chekupedzisira, sekutaura kwakasiyana zvematongerwo enyika nezveGreen New Deal / Building Back Better / Building Back Bluer (kana yedu pachedu blue shiftmutauro) tiri kufunga zvakakwana nezvekuchinja chete?

Chikwata cheTOF cheInternational Ocean Acidification Initiative chakakwanisa kuenderera mberi nedzidziso dzekuongorora uye kudzikisira kweOA kune vaipinda muAfrica yose. Masayendisiti anodzidziswa maitiro ekutarisa chemistry yegungwa mumvura yenyika dzavo. Vanoita sarudzo kubva kunyika idzodzo vanodzidziswawo maitiro ekugadzira marongero nekuita zvirongwa zvinobatsira kugadzirisa mhedzisiro yegungwa acidization mumvura yavo, kuve nechokwadi chekuti mhinduro dzinotanga kumba.

Pane nzira refu iri pamberi pekugadzirisa zvikanganiso, kudzoreredza kukanganisa uye kudzika kuenzana chaiko uye kuenzana nekururamisira.

Icho chikamu chebasa reTOF's Underwater Cultural Heritage chirongwa kuratidza kubatana pakati petsika nenhaka yechisikigo, kusanganisira basa regungwa mukutengeserana kwenyika dzese uye mhosva dzenhoroondo dzakapokana nevanhu.

Basa rangu seMutungamiriri weThe Ocean Foundation nderekuchengetedza kutaurirana, kubuda pachena, uye kuzvidavirira uye kushanda kuti ndione kuti DEIJ ibasa rechokwadi rekubatanidza kuitira kuti tinyatsokurudzira DEIJ munharaunda yedu yese nebasa redu. Ndakaedza kuisa pfungwa pakuvaka kusimba pamberi penyaya dzakaoma, uye kuvaka tarisiro kana nhau dzakanaka dzichiuya, uye kuve nechokwadi chekuti isu tese pavashandi tinotaura nezve zvese. Ndinodada nezvatakaita paDEIJ kusvika parizvino, kunyanya kuzvipira kwedu kusiyanisa bhodhi redu, vashandi vedu, nemikana iripo kune vechidiki vangangove venyanza.

Ndinoonga mwoyo murefu wenhengo dzedare redu reDEIJ mukundibatsira kundidzidzisa, uye kundibatsira kuziva kuti handigoni kunzwisisa kuti chii chaizvoizvo kuva munhu ane ruvara munyika yedu, asi ndinogona kuziva kuti zvinogona kuva dambudziko. zuva rega rega, uye ndinogona kuziva kuti nyika ino ine rusaruro rwakanyanya uye rwemasangano kupfuura zvandakanga ndamboona. Uye, kuti rusaruraganda urwu rwakaunza kukuvadza kwakawanda munharaunda, hupfumi uye kwezvakatipoteredza. Ndinogona kudzidza kubva kune avo vanogona kutaura kune zvakaitika kwavari. Hazvisi pamusoro pangu, kana izvo zvandinogona "kuverenga" pamusoro penyaya kunyangwe ndiri kuwana zviwanikwa zvakakosha zvakandibatsira munzira.

Sezvo TOF inotarisa kumakore gumi echitatu, takaisa hurongwa hwechiito chinotsamira pairi uye chinobatanidza kuzvipira kuDEIJ iyo icharatidzwa kuburikidza:

• Kuita maitiro akaenzana mumativi ese ebasa redu, kubva pamari uye kugovera kune zviito zvekuchengetedza.
• Kuvaka hunyanzvi hwekuenzana uye kubatanidzwa mukati menharaunda dzatinoshanda, tichitarisa mapurojekiti kunze kweUnited States nenzvimbo dzemahombekombe dziri kudiwa zvakanyanya.

Tiri kuzoyera nekugovera mafambiro edu parwendo urwu. Kuti titaure nyaya yedu tichashandisa yedu yakajairwa Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning to DEIJ Mamwe metrics achasanganisira kusiyana pachayo (Gender, BIPOC, Disabilities) pamwe netsika nemagariro akasiyana. Pamusoro pezvo, tinoda kuyera kuchengetwa kwevashandi vevanhu vakasiyana-siyana, uye kuyera mwero wavo webasa (kusimudzirwa munzvimbo dzehutungamiriri / vatariri) uye kuti TOF iri kubatsira here "kusimudza" vashandi vedu, pamwe nevanhu vari mumunda wedu (mukati kana kunze) .

Pane nzira refu iri pamberi pekugadzirisa zvikanganiso, kudzoreredza kukanganisa uye kudzika kuenzana chaiko uye kuenzana nekururamisira.

Kana muine mazano ekuti nharaunda yeTOF inogona kana kuti inofanira kubatsira sei kune yakanaka uye kwete kusimbisa iyo yakaipa, ndapota ndinyorerei kana Eddie Love saSachigaro wedu weDare reDEIJ.
