- Between June 9 and 13, 2025, Nice, a city located along the coast, will serve as the venue for the Third UN Ocean Conference, a major summit focused on addressing critical ocean-related challenges.
- UNOC3 follows a year-long collaboration by an International Scientific Committee, including Professor Deborah Greaves, which culminated in the formulation of ten key ocean recommendations presented during the One Ocean Science Congress held in Nice.
- These recommendations emphasize integrating knowledge, protecting marine ecosystems, advancing equitable resource sharing, and promoting ocean-based climate solutions amid accelerating ocean warming and biodiversity loss.
- UN Secretary-General Li Junhua emphasized that funding for ocean protection from 2015 to 2019 remained under $10 billion and urged a substantial increase in investment to reflect the ocean’s vital importance in regulating the climate.
- UNOC3 aims to accelerate commitments through voluntary pledges and the Nice Ocean Action Plan, potentially shaping global ocean governance and driving tangible actions for marine health and climate resilience.
