Behind us is The International Ocean Data Conference 2022 - The Data We Need for the Ocean We Want, which took place on February 14-16 in Sopot under the auspices of UNESCO. The Institute of Oceanology of the Polish Academy of Sciences, as the leader of the eCUDO.pl project, hosted this event. The conference was an excellent platform to present the goals and results of the project on the international forum.
Over 1,000 people from all over the world registered online for the conference, and nearly 100 participated in person.
For the IO PAN this is a very significant event - we showed our presence in the international discussion on data sharing, and we entered a very important point in the Institute's evaluation in the field of 'impact'. We received many very positive reviews of this event.
The conference was under the honorary patronage of, among others by the Minister of Foreign Affairs.

Ze smutkiem dowiedzieliśmy się, że dziś w nocy odszedł w wieku 86 lat dr inż. Jacek Wyrwiński, nasz emerytowany długoletni pracownik, Główny Inżynier, niezwykle zaangażowany w sprawy Instytutu i jego rozwoju - szczególnie OCEANII. Był jednym z inicjatorów pikników naukowych, zawsze aktywny, pomocny i otwarty na kontakty z innymi. Był jedną z najbardziej rozpoznawalnych postaci w historii IO PAN. Mamy w pamięci jego pożegnalny prezent – album rocznicowy OCEANII, którego był pomysłodawcą. Rodzinie oraz najbliższym składamy wyrazy serdecznego współczucia.
