Coral Reefs at the Climate–Action Frontline: Science, Finance and Communities for a Resilient Future
Coral Reefs at the Climate–Action Frontline: Science, Finance and Communities for a Resilient Future
Coral reefs are vital to people and nature, yet they sit on the front line of the climate crisis and urgently need emissions cuts and scaled nature-based adaptation. This event gathers government representatives, IPLCs, scientists and NGOs to advance delivery from COP30 to COP31 through reef-positive finance, inclusive governance and locally grounded science. It will…
-
Climate change is harming marine ecosystems and blue economies through rising sea temperatures, stronger storms, and droughts that disrupt fish habitats and livelihoods. Pollution, overfishing, and weak management worsen vulnerabilities. Effective action requires building capacity, local adaptation, financing access, and integrating climate measures into blue economy policies. Innovation, cooperation, and fair benefit sharing are key…

The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Advancing Ocean Science Sustainability and Climate Adaptation
The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Advancing Ocean Science Sustainability and Climate Adaptation
This panel explores how AI revolutionizes ocean science and conservation. Experts demonstrate AI solutions for: Sustainable Fisheries (ML for tracking and anti-poaching efforts), Biodiversity (species identification and habitat health), Climate Resilience (predictive heatwaves/storms), and Pollution Mitigation (AI robots and drones). AI also supports Marine Strategic Planning by synthesizing vast data for optimal resource allocation and…
-
At the heart of all ecosystems on Earth is an invisible network of micro-organisms that support food webs and underpin the ecosystem services upon which we and our planet depend. Microbes inhabit all parts of the planet – from the land to the ocean, they recycle nutrients, fuel roughly half of global carbon fixation through… |

-
Women leaders from Latin America and the Caribbean unite to champion ocean justice. Indigenous and young women voices share their struggles and innovations in protecting marine life and coastal livelihoods. The event calls for gender-transformative policies that advance equity, resilience, and inclusive ocean governance amid the climate and biodiversity crises.
-
As we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Paris Agreement, COP30 must mark the beginning of a new era of climate action focused on implementation. To support this shift, the Ocean & Climate Platform will unveil its new policy recommendations — developed with the 115+ members of its network. Three experts will present the pillars…
-
This session explores opportunities for small-scale fisheries and seaweed aquaculture to drive climate mitigation and adaptation while strengthening livelihoods and food security. Drawing on experiences from G20, BRICS and beyond, it will highlight cooperation mechanisms, technologies, and financing to promote low-emission, resilient aquatic food systems while supporting coastal communities.
-
The ocean’s soundscape underpins biodiversity and climate balance but is increasingly disturbed by human activity. This talk frames ocean noise as a critical yet neglected stressors shaping ecosystems and governance. It explores sources from ships to storms, links to climate change, and threats to species reliant on sound. Scientific insights and solutions—quieter ships, sustainable design,…
-
High-level event and signing ceremony welcoming new government signatories to the Climate-Resilience Coral Reefs Commitment, the first global pledge to protect climate-resilient reefs vital for biodiversity, food, and coastal protection. The event will spotlight frontline stories, share updated science, and strengthen partnerships advancing 30x30 and global biodiversity goals. |
