Progressive Steps Toward 100% Sustainable Ocean Management
It’s important to note that countries are at different stages in their
journey towards sustainable ocean management. The goal is to achieve 100% sustainable management of a country’s Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), gradually expanding the scopes of their management efforts over time. This phased approach allows for learning, capacity building, and adaptive management as countries work towards comprehensive coverage. Specific steps and timeline for reaching full coverage may vary across countries, reflecting different starting points and needs.

The High Level Panel for a Sustainable Ocean Economy (Ocean Panel) is a global initiative led by 14 world leaders committed to creating a sustainable ocean economy that balances effective protection, sustainable production, and equitable prosperity. Since its establishment in 2018, the Ocean Panel has collaborated with governments, businesses, scientists, and civil society to develop bold, practical solutions for ocean sustainability. Co-chaired by Norway and Palau, the Ocean Panel’s work includes comprehensive research and partnerships aimed at achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals and shaping a resilient future for both people and the planet.
