CHFP at the 2024 UN Ocean Decade Conference: Advancing a Sustainable Ocean Future
The CHFP is honoured to participate in the 2024 UN Ocean Decade Conference, a pivotal event aimed at advancing the science and collaboration needed to secure a sustainable future for our ocean. Hosted in vibrant Barcelona, Spain, the conference is an opportunity to reflect on the progress made since the launch of the Ocean Decade and chart the course for future action.
As a proud member of the Ocean Decade community and the sole endorsed Ocean Decade programme focused on cultural heritage, the CHFP is dedicated to integrating cultural heritage into the fabric of the Ocean Decade’s 10 Challenges. Our presence at the conference underscores our commitment to advancing interdisciplinary approaches that recognise the intrinsic connection between cultural heritage and the health of marine ecosystems.
We are actively engaging in critical discussions, showcasing the CHFP’s ongoing initiatives, elevating our network of endorsed CHFP Actions, and growing our global community. The challenges facing our ocean are vast and complex, but together, through collective action and collaboration, we can drive meaningful change.
We invite you to join us in this important endeavour as we work towards a future where the ocean thrives, leaving no one behind. If you would like to connect with the CHFP about the UN Ocean Decade Conference, please contact chfp@oceandecadeheritage.org.
