The 9th Our Ocean Conference took place in Athens, Greece on April 15-17, 2024, with the aim of reaffirming its commitment to transition to a “Blue economy” to harness the advantages of a new balance between economic development (growth), social cohesion, and sustainability as well as addressing some key challenges such as biodiversity loss, climate change, unsustainable fishing, marine pollution especially from plastics, and unsustainable maritime transport.
