<p><font size="3">Director of North America Regional Programs,
SeaWeb</font></p>
<p>Silver Spring, MD</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The North America Regional Director will work with the
President, other regional directors, Chief Scientist,
Seafood Choices Program team, and communications, science,
and operations support staff to manage its Silver Spring
office and lead its North America initiatives. The primary
programmatic focus of the director is to manage SeaWeb’s
sustainable seafood work directed at key audiences in the
North American market. Externally, she/he will work closely
with marine conservation groups, scientists, government
officials and innovative thought leaders in the sector to
help large and small businesses explore how seafood
sustainability can best be integrated into their operations.
Among the responsibilities of this position will be to
provide strategic leadership and guidance to the Seafood
Choices team for the successful development and
implementation of the International Seafood Summit and for
achieving outcomes and goals of the Seafood Choices North
America regional strategy. Further, the Director is
encouraged to develop new initiatives, campaigns, and
programs for the North America region that are in line with
SeaWeb’s mission, such as issue directed campaigns or
broader ocean industry engagement work.

<p><font size="3">Marine Technical Specialist, Rare
Conservation<br>
</font>Koror, Palau</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Reporting to the Micronesia program director and located in
Koror, Palau, the marine technical specialist will provide
technical support to local conservation leaders (“campaign
managers”) enrolled in Rare’s Program for Island Resilience
in Micronesia. This two year program consists of 17 weeks of
master’s degree level academic training plus 84 weeks in the
field implementing social marketing-based Pride Campaigns in
their communities. The program launched in July 2012.</p>
<p><br>
Rare’s Micronesia cohort includes 11 campaigns, 4 of which
focus on controlling erosion in key watersheds and 7 of
which focus on improving MPA effectiveness. The ideal
candidate for marine technical specialist will have
experience working on both MPA enforcement as well as
erosion control measures. Candidates with one area of
specialty will also be considered.</p>
<p><br>
This position will focus on each campaign’s “barrier
removal” (BR) strategies. At Rare we use social marketing
principles to change the behavior of individuals to adopt
specific positive environmental behaviors which ultimately
result in improved conservation. Barrier removal strategies
use socioeconomic research to identify what are the barriers
to adopting positive behaviors and then work to remove those
impediments. For example, if research shows that community
members are not aware of MPA boundaries, a barrier removal
strategy could include demarcation of the MPA with buoys and
increased signage. </p>
<p><br>
For Micronesia, barrier removal focuses on improving MPA
enforcement and governance through demarcation, building
guard houses, completing and/or updating of MPA management
plans, forming MPA management committees, and other
activities as appropriate per site. For the terrestrial
sites, the focus is on setting up erosion control
demonstration sites, training landowners on erosion control
best practices, and revegetating barren areas. Strategies
are customized to each site.</p>
<p><br>
The marine technical specialist will provide technical
assistance to each of the campaign managers to support the
barrier removal activities in their campaigns. This includes
developing barrier removal operation plans at each site and
implementing these plans over the next 18 months. </p>
<p><br>
This position is contingent upon specific project funding.
We are eager to begin sharing this post and initiate
conversations with interested and qualified candidates.
Initial interviews will be confirmed once funding has been
secured in early 2013. Ideal start date is mid-February,
2013.<br>

<p> </p>
<p>This project is part of the Environment Group’s
International Ocean Conservation Program. Building on Pew’s
strength in the United States and Europe, this project
continues our efforts to protect vulnerable deep sea life
from destructive fishing practices. It will concentrate on
reducing deep sea bottom fisheries in the Northeast
Atlantic--the area of the world where most high-seas bottom
trawling takes place. Specifically, we will advocate that
the European Union (EU), by far the largest high-seas bottom
trawl fishing fleet in this region, takes the necessary
measures to implement its international obligations
contained in United Nations resolutions, reduces the
footprint of its vessels, and reduces the total allowable
catches (all species caught) and quotas for specific species
that it sets for deep sea fisheries. We will do this
through the regulatory process in the EU, concentrating on
the Deep Sea Access Regime proposal that was released by the
European Commission in July of 2012.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Our efforts will also focus on the two RFMOs with
jurisdiction in the North Atlantic, the Northwest Atlantic
Fisheries Organization (NAFO) and the Northeast Atlantic
Fisheries Commission (NEAFC).

<p>-protect the breeding and foraging grounds of predator
populations;<br>
-ensure protection of spawning grounds for Patagonian
toothfish and other fish species;<br>
-safeguard critical marine seascapes such as seamounts,
ridges, and troughs;<br>
-protect the breeding and foraging grounds of emperor,
Adélie, and gentoo penguins and crabeater, Weddell, and
Antarctic fur seals; and,<br>
-provide a refuge for whale, seal, and fish populations that
are still recovering from historical overexploitation.

research on social-ecological interactions. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>The positions will be part of the Family Erling Persson’s
Academy Program on The Ecological Economics of Global
Change, lead by Prof. Carl Folke.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Human wellbeing and the Earth system on which it depends
are in transition. In a globalised world the economy,
society, technology and the environment interact in novel
and even unexpected ways. A key challenge is to foster
development that is favourable and sustainable for current
and future generations, taking into account and respecting
the capacity of the biosphere to support such development.
</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Research will address the complex, multi-scale dynamics of
social–ecological systems, economic development and critical
ecosystem services in the new global context.
</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The dynamics include nonlinear thresholds that can lead to
large, persistent changes but also transformations of human
actions toward stewardship of social–ecological systems for
global sustainability. Part of the program will focus on
marine issues in this context.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>The Ecological Economics of Global Change program aims to
address such challenges and is searching for key
collaborators to achieve this. The positions are two plus
three years, with potential for continuation. We envision a
early career researchers at the level of post-doc or
similar. </p>
