Bottom-up approach
Societal Outcomes
A Clean Ocean Sources of pollution are identified, quantifiedand reduced, and pollutants removed from the Ocean.
A healthy and resilient Ocean Marine ecosystems are mapped and protected, multiple impacts, including climate change, are measured and reduced, and the provision of Ocean ecosystem services is maintained.
A predicted Ocean Society has the capacity to understand current and future Ocean conditions, forecast their change and impact on human wellbeing and livelihoods.
Societal Outcomes
A safe Ocean Human communities are protected from oceanhazards and the safety of operations at sea and on the coast is guaranteed.
A SustainableProductive Ocean The provision of food supply and alternative livelihoods are secured.
A transparent and accessible Ocean All nations, stakeholders and citizens have accessto ocean data and information, technologies, and are capable of making informed decisions.

Decade of Ocean Science
for SustainableDevelopment
(2021-2030)
Proposed topics for group discussion at 13:00-16:15, 31 July
Whether our science is available or still needed to measure progress in achieving SDG 14 targets, in particular eutrophication and plastic pollution in SDG 14.1, ocean acidification in SDG 14.3, and capacity development in 14.a. etc.
How we can help with the UN Decade of Ocean Science?
Network event: the 11th WESTPAC International Marine Science Conference 2020, Indonesia.
How we could forge the largest gathering of marine scientists in the region, as a delivery platform to ensure a timely response, and examine the outputs of the UN decade in the region
“Advancing Ocean Knowledge，Fostering
Sustainable Development:
from the Indo-Pacific to the Globe”

The largest gathering for marine scientists in the region with nearly
800 participants,6 keynotes, 22 sessions, and 8 workshops
