Communicating the Ocean Decade with Vinicius Lindoso | Ocean Decade Show!

March 31, 2022

How communications can make or break the UN Ocean Decade!

Taylor has the opportunity to speak with an old friend, but first time podcast guest  during this month's episode of The Ocean Decade Show -  Vinicius Lindoso, a Communications Officer with the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission. Vinny provides a great overview of the role of communications during the Ocean Decade and the brand new GenOcean campaign. Taylor digs up her past pretending to be a communications expert to ask the real expert about why communications is so important during the Ocean Decade and why it's been such a focus of the IOC since the launch of the Decade in 2021. Taylor and Vinny also discuss the Ocean Decade's newest communications campaign, Generation Ocean - a new global movement to grow awareness and drive action to protect the ocean. There's nothing more fun than doing a podcast with your friends, and it shows in this month's episode! To learn more about GenOcean, visit the website at www.genocean.org.
