On our blue planet, oceans have long shaped human histories. Generations have crossed the seas, fished their depths, and navigated their currents, encountering new peoples and places on the waves and on the shores. In this Deep Conversation, we reflect on just how oceans have shaped deep human pasts and how we can recover ocean histories from the deep.
Speakers: Professor Lynette Russell, Kathleen Fitzpatrick Laureate, Monash University and Professor Patrick Nunn, University of the Sunshine Coast
