The Young Explorers Program forms part of OceanX's greater commitment to ocean science and media education and fostering a deep understanding of the oceans to cultivate the next generation of marine scientists and advocates. These young explorers will have the opportunity to enrich their multidisciplinary majors in the arts and sciences, ranging from documentary filmmaking and computer science to environmental studies and more aboard the mission. The Young Explorers class of 2023 are undergraduate students from colleges and universities across the country including Spelman College, Howard University, Yale University, Stanford University, University of Southern California, Maine Maritime Academy, Sacred Heart University, Western Washington University, Dartmouth College, and Worcester Polytechnic. We're thrilled to offer this opportunity for students to further their knowledge and excitement for ocean exploration." "Every year, our educational arm is bolstered by our growing network of admirable partners that have made an invaluable contribution to advancing inclusive representation in the fields of STEAM and marine science. "Young Explorers is the culmination of OceanX's educational effort to cultivate a passion for marine science and exploration in the next generation," said Mark Dalio, co-founder and co-CEO of OceanX. The program aims to expand access to ocean exploration, foster a new generation of ocean advocates, and offer hands-on, immersive instruction to students in fields related to marine research and media. But this will probably be his last visit to Europe.Īttendance at the lecture and workshop is free.Since launching in 2021, the Young Explorers program has offered learning and career opportunities to young people, particularly those underrepresented in STEAM, marine science, and exploration fields. You are cordially invited to meet Robert Horn. The goals we will be working are: Goal 1, No poverty Goal 11, Sustainable cities and Communities and Goal 13, Climate action. Part 2 – WorkshopĬhoosing three United Nations Development Goals, Robert Horn will assist groups in making visualisations of goals, barriers, strategies needed to resolve humanity’s big issues. Horn will give a lecture on visual language and how it can help resolve society’s big issues. Often the issues are wicked, the data is incomplete, the values conflict, the views are opposed, the stakes are different for involved stakeholders, alternative choices conflict with each other and the time is urgent. Because of the evident complexity and multiple viewpoints involved in the big issues, we need multiple maps. He invented the mess map, a first visual analysis of big issues. The last twenty years he has made information murals on society’s challenges, ranging from sustainability, health care, nuclear waste, foreign policy, education. The book explains how we recognize and interpret this new language rather than teaching us how to read or write, it lays the groundwork for better use of the still-evolving communication tool. Horn shows how our language changes as our information stream meets a confluence of new media, incorporating visual elements with writing to show and tell simultaneously. In his book Visual Language: Global Communication for the 21st Century, Stanford scholar Robert E. Meet inventor of Mess Maps and co-inventor of information murals - Robert E.
