The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is organizing multiple sessions during the biannual Ocean Sciences Meeting (OSM) in New Orleans, Louisiana February 18-23, 2024. OSM is a biannual flagship conference for the ocean sciences, attended by a diverse community of scientists, students, journalists, policymakers, educators, and other stakeholders.
We encourage stakeholders to submit abstracts for the following BOEM-hosted sessions:

- ED007 - Increasing Inclusion of Diverse Perspectives: Best Practices for Community-Based Participatory Methods and the Meaningful Involvement of Historically Marginalized or Underserved Populations
- OT015 - Offshore renewable energy: resource characterization and environmental impacts
- CP009 - Offshore Sand, Other Sediment, and Mineral Resources: Researching, Utilizing, and Related Environmental Analyses
- ED017 - One Byte at a Time: Sharing Best Practices, Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), and Data Standards to Support Ocean Mapping, Exploration, and Characterization
