Since COP21, new elements of knowledge came to light, thus enhancing our understanding of the interactions between ocean, climate and biodiversity. The well-being of marine ecosystems is recognized as central to combat climate change, highlighting the need to support and develop ocean science.
In view of the launching of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021–2030), the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO and Ocean and Climate Platform are organizing a High Level Scientific Conference at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris.
The conference aims at synthesizing recent scientific progress on ocean and climate interplays; evaluating the latest ocean-climate trends within the context of increased ocean action; and reflecting on ways to move “from science to action”.
