Please share your experience of having been part of any mechanism for data sharing.\n\nAre there any ongoing joint research efforts among scientists from different countries in the South China Sea? Please share your prior experience if you have been involved or are currently involved in these research efforts. Are there plans to integrate these research efforts into a broader diplomatic strategy?\n\nWhat are the current policies for protecting the marine environment?\n\nWhat are the current programs with higher education institutions to facilitate the study of Philippine waters?\n\nFor background information\, view the concept note (PDF).\n\nResource Speakers\n\nWilfredo Licuanan\, PhD is a “Full Professor of the Biology Department and University Fellow of De La Salle University….He has been surveying and monitoring coral reefs for over twenty-five years and has led research teams to many previously unstudied reefs from all around the country including the Kalayaan (Spratly) Islands (where he discovered a coral species new to science)\, and the Pacific Ocean coasts from Luzon to Mindanao.” He obtained his PhD in Biology from the University of Southern California.
