The High Level Panel for a Sustainable Ocean Economy (The Ocean Panel) aims to advance a more prosperous and resilient future for people and the planet.

Countries across our blue planet are coming together for a sustainable ocean economy. Nations large and small, across all ocean basins, at every stage of economic development, at every extreme of the ocean environment from the tropics to the arctic.

A healthy ocean is essential for everyone.

Humanity’s well-being is intertwined with the health of the ocean. The ocean stabilizes the climate, sustains us, and leads to greater prosperity.
