Subject: Opportunity: IUCN call for applications to serve on independent whale
panel, due 20th Aug 2015
Dear Marine Mammals Research and Conservation community,
I am writing to share IUCN's Call for Applications from independent experts to
serve on the IUCN's Western Gray Whale Advisory Panel (WGWAP).
The Panel has provided independent scientific and technical advice and
recommendations on ways to minimize impacts on western gray whales from oil and
gas development offshore Russia's Sakhalin Island, just north of Japan, for the
last 10 years.
IUCN is now seeking to recruit between 6-10 experts to serve on the Panel for a
15-month period from 1 October 2015 to 31 December 2016.
The expertise required ranges from general cetacean biology, population
assessment and modelling to bio-acoustics and environmental monitoring. IUCN is
also looking for expertise related to marine mammal response to disturbance and
mitigation measures, especially but not exclusively with respect to oil and gas
activities, as well as experience interpreting relevant Performance Standards
of the International Finance Corporation / World Bank Group on environmental
and social sustainability.
The application form, along with some background information, details
concerning the open positions, specific expertise requirements and the general
TORs are available online via http://iucn.org/wgwap/?21582 or
https://hrms.iucn.org/iresy/index.cfm?event=vac.showOpenList (see at the bottom
of the list).
Applications and requests for further information should be sent by email to
anete.berz...@iucn.orgmailto:anete.berz...@iucn.org no later than 20th August
2015.
For more details on the WGWAP process, please see: http://www.iucn.org/wgwap.
Please do feel free to share the Call for Applications further within your
networks, as appropriate.
Kind regards,
Anete
