The date is tentative due to the pandemic. The seventh Our Ocean Conference will draw partners globally to identify solutions to sustainably manage marine resources, increase the ocean’s resilience to climate change and safeguard its health for generations to come.
This meeting was originally scheduled to take place in December 2020 in Palau. It has been postponed, due to the global COVID-19 pandemic.
The six areas originally selected for the focus of the conference are as follows: climate change, marine pollution, marine protected areas, sustainable fisheries, sustainable blue economy, and maritime security.
The sixth Our Ocean Conference took place in Oslo, Norway, from 23-24 October 2019. A SDG Knowledge Hub Summary is available here. Summaries for previous years are also available for: 2017, 2016, 2015 and 2014.
