This includes organizing and/or facilitating projects and initiatives, assisting the creation of new expert groups (e.g. task forces, working groups, etc.), organizing webinars, workshops, and generally helping to advance the co-design, testing and ultimately deployment of ocean-based solutions to critical climate challenges. Focal areas of GEOS include ocean-based climate mitigation and carbon dioxide removal; equitable solutions to coastal resilience; regeneration of ecosystems and biodiversity to counter the impacts of climate change; and building ocean-based food security in the face of climate impacts. The PD will be a staff member of Ocean Visions and report to Ocean Visions and the executive committee of the GEOS Program. The PD will also work closely with the Center for OceanClimate Solutions and Innovation (COCSI), which is a new “Collaborative Center” under the UN.
