-The second workshop of the Marine CoLAB builds on ideas and suggestions that emerged during the [[workshop201501|first meeting]] in January. We’ll begin at the individual scale and ask what personalities, skills and knowledge make up the Marine CoLAB today. Most of the morning is dedicated to a series of parallel sessions, finding out what the participants would like to contribute to a world-changing Marine CoLAB, formulated as quests, challenges or hypotheses. Based on these outcomes, the participants are invited to design a series of experiments to connect the broad theme of 'valuing the oceans' to their work and interests. +The second workshop of the Marine CoLAB builds on ideas and suggestions that emerged during the [[workshop_201501|first meeting]] in January.

 The experiment designs will form the basis of the first concrete Marine CoLAB collaborations. It might seem too soon to be designing an experiment in an afternoon, but the participants will have a chance to refine and develop the ideas after the workshop. Marine CoLAB would like to encourage an iterative approach. So, while the participants may have big ideas, the challenge is to translate this idea into realistic experiments that can be used to test the idea starting from tomorrow. Rather than establishing a monolithic ambitious two year plan, the participants are invited to use heuristics and learn by doing. Over the course of Marine CoLAB, as they get used to working together the plan is to then move on to developing larger and more complex experiments and initiatives.  The experiment designs will form the basis of the first concrete Marine CoLAB collaborations.

 After a warm-up game of [[http://stephenshapiro.com/personality-poker/|personality poker]] and designing personal 'shields' with the skills and personality traits that each participant brings to Marine CoLAB, we looked at issues in the participants' current work that could become a part of Marine CoLAB programme. The participants were invited to think about what they would like to contribute to Marine CoLAB and to propose an [[http://www.openspaceworld.org/|Open Space]] session that others could join. The sessions could take different formats (from presentations and discussions to more hands-on approaches). At the end of the session the outcome should be formulated as a challenge, quest or hypothesis.  After a warm-up game of [[http://stephenshapiro.com/personality-poker/|personality poker]] and designing personal 'shields' with the skills and personality traits that each participant brings to Marine CoLAB, we looked at issues in the participants' current work that could become a part of Marine CoLAB programme.

-Using the challenges/hypotheses as a starting point, the participants designed a set of experiments. The constraints are that the experiment should be implemented by July using the current resources of Marine CoLAB. The participants were free to structure their own design sessions as they saw fit. [[http://www.valilalioti.com/tools.html|GROWTH cards]] were offered on the tables as a way to guide the conversations from goal to outcome. +Using the challenges/hypotheses as a starting point, the participants designed a set of experiments.
