Join us at the forefront of ocean action! The International Ocean Institute will take part in the 3rd UN Ocean Conference, engaging in key events on ocean governance, capacity development, and ocean literacy.

IOI partnered with various organisations for two Side Events; Submitted a third Voluntary Commitment to further contribute in achieving SDG14 and submitted a written statement together with the ECOP Programme.

A third Voluntary Commitment submitted by IOI at the second UN Ocean Conference.

The IOI along with the ECOP Programme, strongly believes in the unique role of ECOPs and the need to provide them with greater engagement and capacity building opportunities if we wish to fulfil the vision of the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development.

As an organization in consultative status with ECOSOC, the IOI shall be represented at the UN Ocean Conference (UNOC) with a delegation of three persons. This builds on the IOI’s commitment to the process, which started with the first UNOC held in 2017 in New York.
