Coordinating Board

The Magazine is shaped by the contribution of many international-minded people with different academic backgrounds. The team includes students and alumni from the EU, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Japan and South Korea, but it is also open to other people both within and outside the OCEANS Network. The work of the contributors is directed and coordinated by the Magazine Coordinator with the assistance of the Project Manager and the Graphic Designer.

Our network is doing great things and providing amazing opportunities, but all of these need to be communicated internally, to our members, and externally to the outside world. Exchange of information is key to enable our members to access our services, events, and opportunities. Packaging catchy and informative pieces of information on social media and articles to be published online is essential for advancing the prestige of the network and for giving chance to new people to get to know about us and what we do.

Those team members are passionate about creating engaging posts to promote OCEANS internationally. Thereby significantly contributing to an increased outreach and the network´s visibility on our social media channels.
