2024 Ocean Decade Conference - The Mediterranean Flagship Event

The EU Mission “Restore our Ocean and waters” is enabling key actors to restore our cities, islands, ports, regions, and others,  by reaching the 2030 objectives of the Ocean Decade. 

The EU Mission “Restore our Ocean & Waters”  is developing, demonstrating and deploying at scale innovative solutions for protecting marine ecosystems, preventing pollution and making the blue economy climate neutral. These solutions will be key to validate a common strategic ambition for the Ocean Decade challenges to be discussed during the UN Ocean Decade in Barcelona on 12 April during one of the side events of the Mission Ocean & waters. 

By connecting the people and places with the necessary solutions and knowledge, the Mission is supporting key actors, like waterfront cities, regions, ports, islands, fisheries and conservation communities to become resilient, climate-neutral and future-proof. Examples of cities having endorsed the Mission Charter were presented:  Barcelona hosting the event, the city of as well as Ancona, Burgas and Mersin.
