In 2026, Blue Convergence Fund ran a request for proposals for engagement projects that would mobilize existing knowledge for action and decision-making associated with ocean, coastal, and/or estuarine biodiversity. Following a rigorous external review process we now have ten new projects across three US regions: Puget Sound, Chesapeake Bay, and Mobile Bay. In this second webinar, we will feature grantees discussing their work to engage local communities in discussing knowledge systems, governance integration, and decision pathways for ocean biodiversity. Speakers hail from University of South Alabama, the Indigenous Conservation Council, Thriving Coasts Consulting, Long Live the Kings, and Maritime Blue.
