Summary
As part of the UN Regular Process and in view of preparations of the third edition of the World Ocean Assessment, UNESCO's Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission and the UN Division of Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea (DOALOS) are organizing a two-day international symposium on strengthening the ocean science-policy interface.
The symposium will gather scientific and policy communities at all levels, including States and intergovernmental organizations with competence in the ocean science-policy interface, as well as relevant non-governmental organizations and other stakeholders, and expects to deliver on the following outcomes:
- Increased awareness on the importance of the science-policy interface for ocean governance;
- Enhanced understanding and knowledge on the science-policy interface through dialogue among multiple stakeholders from all levels;
- Improved identification of regional and global lessons learned and priorities in reinforcing the science-policy interface;
- Strengthened awareness on the importance of compatibility and synergies between assessments at the global and regional levels within the framework of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021–2030).
