Some of the world’s leaders, and leading thinkers from NUS and overseas, regularly gather and add to the rich diversity of thoughts and ideas on our campuses, in Singapore and across the globe.
Here’s what they had to share.

The need for a Singapore ‘Blue Plan’ to help protect the world’s high seas

Speaker: Audrey Tan 21 Mar 2023

The ocean has a great influence on the very existence of a small island state like Singapore, but beyond that, the new treaty could also represent new opportunities and risks for the country. Audrey Tan, Science communications and outreach lead at NUS Tropical Marine Science Institute and Centre for Nature-based Climate Solutions, shares her views on this topic.
