Launch Event: SOS Baltic Sea Art\u2013Science CoLab<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Welcome to the official launch event of the SOS Baltic Sea Art\u2013Science CoLab, a new interdisciplinary community connected to the Centre for Sustainable Ocean Science (SOS) at \u00c5bo Akademi University (\u00c5AU). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CoLab <\/a>brings together artists, researchers, and other practitioners interested in marine, coastal, archipelago, biodiversity, and sustainability questions. The launch event is an opportunity to meet other members of the community, exchange ideas, and begin identifying possible future collaborations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event is a half-day hybrid gathering that includes light refreshments. We begin with a short introduction to the CoLab, continue with facilitated roundtables, and close with joint discussion and an opportunity to gather informally for drinks. The conversations will focus on possible collaborations, shared questions, and what this community could make possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
