2nd GMOS-Train Webinar by Mr Eisaku Toda, on Monday, March 15th at 12 PM (CET).

Mr Eisaku Toda, Senior Programme Officer of the Minamata Convention on Mercury, will present the history, content, implementation status and future direction of the Convention.

The online lecture will last for maximum 90 minutes, followed by discussion. After the session Prof Noelle E. Selin from MIT will provide the PhD students with short introduction to a  Mercury Game and group assignments

For environmental studies students, the mercury simulation demonstrates how scientific uncertainty can affect decision-making. Using the mercury game as an educational tool allows students to learn about complex interactions between science and society and develop communication skills. At this opportunity the students will receive all the required instructions and literature to play the interactive game with Prof Selin on Monday, March 22nd.  You will receive an additional zoom invitation for this event.

It should be noted that this training will provide an opportunity for all ESRs to attend the COP5 meeting scheduled for 2023. In cooperation with all beneficiaries and ESRs, special scientific meetings will be organized where all ESRs will have an opportunity to follow the political decision-making process in the field of research that is the subject of your doctoral dissertations. As an example, you may visit the COP3 process here.
