Tio Septiono
I work at the intersection of science and policy to address environmental issues and the triple planetary crises. I’m adept at working in multilateral and cross-cultural environments, particularly in the Global South, where environmental justice and governance are tightly interlinked. With a background in environmental chemistry, engineering, and public affairs, I bring a unique blend of technical expertise and policy insights. My experience spans across environmental management, environmental policy, hazardous chemicals and waste management, and pollution.
Community Based Storytelling
This course is expected to examine how community voices, local knowledge, and storytelling can support understanding and stewardship of blue carbon ecosystems. Topics may include participatory approaches, ethics, and narrative methods grounded in place and lived experience. Content is indicative and may evolve.
FreeEffective Communication Methods
This course focuses on communicating blue carbon science and practice clearly and responsibly to different audiences. You can expect to explore framing, messaging, and practical communication techniques for policy, technical, and public contexts. The final structure and examples are subject to development.
FreeData and mapping studio
This course is expected to introduce practical data and mapping workflows for blue carbon and coastal ecosystems, including spatial data, basic analysis, and visualisation. It may combine hands-on exercises with discussion of how maps and data support decision-making. Tools and examples are provisional and may change.
FreeSafeguards, and verification
This course is likely to explore environmental and social safeguards relevant to blue carbon initiatives, including risk management, verification processes, and accountability. You can expect attention to governance, equity, and avoiding unintended impacts alongside carbon outcomes. Course content is tentative and may be adjusted during development.
FreeBaselines, change detection
This course is expected to focus on establishing baselines and detecting change over time in blue carbon ecosystems. Topics may include reference conditions, monitoring design, remote sensing, and interpreting trends for management and reporting. The exact scope and methods covered may change as the course is finalised.
FreeField and lab methods (MRV)
This course is expected to cover practical approaches to measuring, reporting, and verifying blue carbon, including field sampling, laboratory analysis, and data quality considerations. It will likely introduce commonly used methods, strengths and limitations, and emerging tools used in blue carbon assessments. Content is indicative and subject to refinement.
FreeBlue Carbon Foundations
This course introduces the core concepts of blue carbon, including mangroves, seagrasses, and tidal wetlands, and their role in climate mitigation, biodiversity, and livelihoods. You can expect to explore why these ecosystems matter, how blue carbon fits within climate and ocean policy, and how science, governance, and communities intersect. Content and focus are tentative and may evolve as the course is developed.
