UNOC 2025: Advancing Multilateral Collaboration for Ocean Conservation

UNOC 2025: Advancing Multilateral Collaboration for Ocean Conservation 1920 1080 The Forum for the Conservation of the Patagonian Sea
As part of the Third United Nations Ocean Conference (UNOC), to be held in Nice from June 9 to 13, the Forum for the Conservation of the Patagonian Sea and Areas of Influence will host a Side Event titled “Multi-Stakeholder Collaborative Engagement for Ocean Conservation – Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, and Southern Brazil.” This session aims to catalyze regional dialogue and integration through a collaborative, participatory approach to marine conservation.

Aligned with the goals of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and SDG 14, the event will provide a platform for diverse stakeholders to share experiences and identify opportunities to strengthen Marine Protected Area networks, enhance governance, build local capacity, reduce human pressures such as plastic pollution, and support climate change adaptation.

By fostering inclusive and innovative solutions, this dialogue seeks to generate synergies that contribute to the long-term conservation of a marine region rich in biodiversity and critical ecological functions—ensuring a healthy ocean for both nature and the coastal communities that depend on it.
