Stakeholders are invited to contribute to the development of the “Ocean Economies” Solution Blueprint, one of 16 Solution and Regional Blueprints being prepared for the 2027 UN Ocean Decade Conference, to be held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Organised within the framework of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021–2030), the initiative aims to identify emerging needs, key opportunities and practical pathways for translating ocean knowledge into action. The Blueprint will support informed policy development, planning and investment towards 2030 and beyond.
The survey welcomes contributions from a wide range of stakeholders, including businesses, public institutions, researchers, investors, policymakers, Indigenous Peoples, local communities, Indigenous and Local Knowledge holders, and civil society organisations.
All interested stakeholders are encouraged to participate in the survey and share their perspectives to help shape the future of sustainable ocean economies. Stakeholders are also invited to disseminate the survey within their professional and institutional networks to encourage broader participation.
