San Jos\u00e9, Costa Rica (April 21, 2026)<\/strong>\u00a0\u2014 Colombia today committed to sustainably manage all of its national waters by 2030, becoming the latest member of the\u00a0100% Alliance<\/a>. The declaration was made by Colombia\u2019s Foreign Minister Rosa Yolanda Villavicencio, who highlighted the ocean\u2019s strategic importance for the country’s development and the urgency of advancing their protection.<\/p>\n

Colombia\u2019s national waters cover almost 1 million square kilometers, spanning both the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea. These rich and biodiverse waters account for around half of the country\u2019s national jurisdiction. As part of its strategy to safeguard these marine ecosystems, the government announced the creation of new marine protected areas in 2025 \u2014 Serranilla and Bajo Nuevo in the Caribbean totaling approximately 3,800 square kilometers.<\/p>\n

La\u00a0100% Alliance<\/a>\u00a0calls on all coastal and ocean states to commit to 100% sustainable ocean management of their national waters by 2030. The initiative is led by Australia and Chile, in partnership with the Ocean Panel and coordinated by World Resources Institute (WRI). This initiative aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 14 (Life Below Water) and the global 30×30 target, which aims to protect at least 30% of the planet.<\/p>\n

As part of this commitment, Colombia will develop a Sustainable Ocean Plan, a framework that will allow for a balance between environmental conservation and the economic development of sectors such as fishing, tourism, and maritime transport.<\/p>\n

The announcement was made during a meeting convened by CAF, the Development Bank of Latin America and World Resources Institue, which brought together governments, international organizations, and financial stakeholders to strengthen ocean governance in Latin America and the Caribbean.<\/p>\n

\u201cColombia\u2019s commitment to the 100% Alliance sends a strong signal of leadership and growing momentum to sustainably manage the ocean to benefit their people and economies,\u201d said\u00a0Cynthia Barzuna, Deputy Director of WRI\u2019s Ocean Program<\/strong>. \u201cAlmost 40 percent of the world\u2019s ocean lies within national jurisdictions, putting countries at the center of how this critical resource is protected and used. When managed well, the ocean can help tackle major challenges by providing renewable energy, sustainable jobs and nutritious food, while also playing a critical role in reducing climate change.\u201d<\/p>\n
