Financing the future of our Oceans: Bridging Climate Resilience and Local Impact
Collaboration between key partners can bring hands-on experience in climate-resilient solutions. In this session, we aim to bridge the gap between financial mechanisms and on-the-ground delivery of sustainable blue economy…
mCDR: Laying the Foundation for Commercial Scale Marine Carbon Dioxide Removal
This panel will address the technical, regulatory, and infrastructure challenges that are needed for commercial scale readiness of marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) solutions, focusing on the role of data-driven…
Building a Wave: Scaling Finance and Investment in the Regenerative and Sustainable Blue Economy
There is a trillion-dollar investment opportunity in the regenerative and sustainable blue economy. Coming from the UN Ocean Conference, there is a wave of momentum to scale finance from beachfront…
Mangroves at the Edge: Bridging Forests and Oceans for Climate Resilience and Blue Carbon Integrity
This interactive session highlights mangroves as vital buffers for climate, coasts, and communities. Speakers will explore tools for Blue Carbon project development, integrated land-sea planning, and inclusive governance. Themes include…
Scaling Up Blue Finance: Integrating the Ocean into Global Sustainability and Financial Strategies
Co-hosted by the French Banking Federation (FBF) and Paris Europlace / Institut de la Finance Durable (IFD), this high-level dialogue will explore how financial systems can better integrate ocean health…
Harnessing Ocean Monitoring Technology for Hazard Mitigation and Carbon Management
This session showcases how ocean monitoring technologies are critical for understanding and mitigating marine hazards. Experts will use real-time data (satellite to autonomous vehicles) to track heatwaves and oil spills.…
Building a Global Ocean Data Ecosystem – How Close Are We?
The ocean is changing faster than our ability to understand it—reshaping climate, biodiversity, and disaster risk. How close are we to building the global ocean data ecosystem needed to keep…
Fish for the Future: How to Build Climate-Resilient Fisheries
Panel on building climate-resilient fisheries. Experts will explore how overfishing and climate shocks interact, including marine heatwave impacts on recruitment and mortality, habitat buffering effects, and vulnerable life stages. Discussion…
From Maretório to Blue NDCs: Coastal and Indigenous Peoples at the Core of Climate Justice
National Safeguards Recommendations developed in Brazil will be launched in this panel to highlight how IPLCs in Brazil are rights holders in the blue carbon agenda. The country, home to…
New Research Frontiers in Law and Science: From the Deep Sea to Rising Sea Levels
Protecting the Oceans from climate change demands that legal frameworks take the best available science into account. The ITLOS confirmed that GHG emissions constitute a form of marine pollution. The…
How can interdisciplinary projects open a space for native people and Afro-Brazilian Fisherwomen and their concerns?
The screening (excerpt) of "Ouro Negro é a Gente" (Black Gold is the People) (premiered at Sao Paulo Biennale 2025) by Brazilian artist Aline Baiana will be followed by an…
Co-Designing Research for Sustainable Ocean Management in West Africa
The upwelling region off West Africa is one of the most productive and biodiverse marine ecosystems in the world, supporting about 200 million people. But little is known about its…
Africa’s Ocean-Climate Leadership: Mobilizing Action from COP30 to the Our Ocean Conference
Africa is a global leader in innovative ocean-climate solutions. This high-level session will convene leaders from across the region and beyond to elevate key success stories, opportunities and challenges facing…
Ocean Acidification and Alkalinity Enhancement: Global Case Studies on Impacts & Local Opportunities
As the ocean absorbs atmospheric CO2, acidification threatens coral reefs, fisheries, and coastal communities worldwide. This session presents the latest science on these impacts alongside global case studies examining the…
Science That Serves the Shores: Pathways for Resilient Coastal Management
In this interactive workshop, participants will probe the path toward integrating state-of-the-art science into coastal resource management. Through 3 case studies, speakers will highlight how research can inform resilient decision-making.…
Pan Amazonian Solutions for Resilient Fisheries Facing Climate Change
Round table: in tropical areas, the impact of climate change is unfavorable to fisheries production, but due to a lack of data, quantitative prediction of species-specific impacts is impossible on…
Racing For The Ocean: Faster & Smarter
The 2025 UN Ocean Conference set the pace. We now need a winning mindset to accelerate action, stay within planetary boundaries, and stabilize the climate. The Ocean Race hosts this…
Carbon Services in Marine Ecosystem Accounts: Supporting the UNFCCC and the KMGB Framework
Ocean Accounts integrate ecological, economic, and social data, providing a framework to inform policymaking, investment, and trade-off decisions. One of the world's largest maritime nations, Portugal was among the first…
Blue Carbon Commitments: Building a Global Ocean–Climate Coalition
At COP30's Ocean Pavilion, Indonesia leads a global call to drive change through blue carbon action. Moderated by GGGI's Malle Fofana, the session brings together Indonesia, Korea, Canada, and the…
Ocean Waves Break(through) in Tropical Cyclone Prediction
Predictions of tropical cyclone (TC) tracks have improved over decades. Predictions of TC intensity lag behind. Strongest TCs tend to be underpredicted. We show that interactive account of wind waves…
