Ich war zu Gast beim SoWiso!-Podcast der @uni-bamberg.de! In unserem spannenden Gespräch haben wir über meine Forschung zu nachhaltiger maritimer Sicherheit, die Lage in der Straße von Hormus, See- und Völkerrecht, Geopolitik und noch viel mehr diskutiert. Hier reinhören: shorturl.at/q8TDu

Very excited to host a workshop on "Sustainability at Sea: Transformations in Contemporary Ocean Governance" in Bamberg on 7 & 8 May with an outstanding group of participants! @uni-bamberg.de Join us in person or online for our hybrid roundtable! Programme & registration: tinyurl.com/4f538d9r

How do popular culture depictions of the sea shape our understanding of an ocean in crisis? In our new thematic issue, @charlygehrke.bsky.social and I introduce the concept of 'Ocean Pop' to analytically grasp marine imaginaries in popular culture. Find the editorial here: doi.org/10.17645/oas...

@dvpw.bsky.social Thematic Group on Polar and #OceanPolitics' annual conference at @prif.org once again provided a great opportunity for insightful conversations around marine-related issues. I presented ongoing work on marine #plasticpollution and #OceanPop. Thanks for the engaging discussions!

Last week, I joined the Fellow Assembly of @foksbayern.bsky.social in Munich - only now getting around to posting. But it feels fitting: good conversations and ideas take time to unfold. The mug says it all: “One sip - one idea - joint research on peace, conflict, and security.” ☕💡👩‍🎓

Wie verändert sich Entwicklungszusammenarbeit? Für die Bay. Wissenschaftsallianz für Friedens-, Konflikt- und Sicherheitsforschung diskutiere ich gemeinsam mit Philipp Gieg, welche Folgen das Ende von USAID hat – und warum die deutschen Mittelkürzungen ein falsches Signal sind. tinyurl.com/2vnmhhss

Etwas für alle Lehrenden, die beim Einsatz von KI Orientierung suchen: An der @uni-bamberg.de haben wir einen KI-Policy-Generator entwickelt, der Lehrenden die Erstellung von Richtlinien für Studierende erleichtert. Der Generator läuft vollständig clientseitig. web.psi.uni-bamberg.de/ki-policy-ge...

Last week, I had the pleasure of attending the @bagss-bamberg.bsky.social Internal Methods Institute. A particular highlight was the workshop on case-based study design taught by the brilliant Derek Beach - grateful for an intellectually stimulating week and full of ideas for new research projects 👩‍🎓

I'm thrilled to announce that I have been appointed Senior Research Fellow at the University of Johannesburg's SARChI Chair: African Diplomacy and Foreign Policy! I'm very excited about this opportunity and look forward to deepening the cooperation with colleagues at the University of Johannesburg.

Why are women still struggling in maritime jobs? Our new open access issue explores what is holding them back in the "blue economy" and how we can create a fairer ocean industry. Issue: shortt.link/oas401bsky

The second day of the Bayerische Wissenschaftsallianz für Friedens-, Konflikt- und Sicherheitsforschung Fellow Assembly in Munich is coming to an end. It was great to meet other fellows, learn about their research, and discuss potential collaborations. Looking forward to the things to come!

Great day in Berlin at @fesonline.bsky.social for the @dvpw.bsky.social Thematic Group Conference on Ocean and Polar Politics. I've presented on #bluefinance and #sustainability. Now looking forward to networking over pizza! 🍕

Who benefits from today’s illegal elimination of all US aid workers worldwide? China. China will fill the gaping void. Chinese aid greatly raises pro-China attitudes & influence across the world: @adreher.bsky.social et al.—> doi.org/10.1086/729539 Ungated—> www.aiddata.org/publications...
