Project overview
In this project, an international and multi-disciplinary team will carry out a global comparative assessment of the role of oceans in the transition to a sustainable future. We will use a process of co-creation to develop methodologies to identify regional specificities, constraints and drivers regarding:
opportunities presented by oceans to address climate change and build a sustainable future
barriers to taking on those opportunities,
consequences of mismanaging the opportunity or inaction
levers for change.

Key outcomes:
Creation of a global community of ocean custodians and network for knowledge sharing to enable oceans to play their role in our sustainable future.
Greater understanding of the regional specificities of ocean resources, access to solutions to sustainably and responsibly harvest those resources, drivers and constraints for current and future interactions with the oceans, and the threats and impact of inaction.
