healthy, productive, resilient, predictable, safe, accessible and valued ocean.
It focuses on the challenges of the Decade: Through the collaboration of various
stakeholders, develop a comprehensive digital representation of the oceans, including
a dynamic, open-access map that allows exploring, discovering and visualizing ocean
conditions in the past, present and future, in a way that can be relevant to all
stakeholders; as well as ensuring the development of global skills and equitable access
to data, information, knowledge and technology regarding all aspects of ocean science
and for all stakeholders.
awareness, capacity building and fostering scientific understanding of the role of the
