UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre. (2018). Supporting the Transition to a Healthy Ocean. Cambridge (UK): UNEP World Conservation Monitoring Centre.
Finding and sharing effective ways to manage the ocean and the growing demand for marine resources is one of the most pressing challenges facing the world today. UNEP-WCMC supports the delivery of ocean-related Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by improving the accessibility and usability of biodiversity and ecosystems data, developing decision support tools and providing evidence-based advice. We also develop workable approaches to integrate social and economic considerations to deliver a healthy ocean for healthy people.
