Summary

The Strategic Science Plan (SSP) created by IOCARIBE aims to strengthen the role of science in the region, fostering improved geopolitical and economic diversity in ocean science usage. It focuses on understanding management priorities, promoting technology and data transfer, capacity development, and ocean literacy. The plan emphasizes the inclusion of early career professionals, women, local communities, and indigenous knowledge holders in ocean initiatives. It urges Member States to adopt measures to reduce losses from extreme weather and ocean-related hazards, develop knowledge to produce goods and services for sustainable development, support commitments to ocean health, and guide policy-making by addressing scientific uncertainties, particularly those related to climate change.
