The Marine Regions Forum Online Workshop on  ‘Ocean Governance and COVID-19 – Building resilience for marine regions’ is taking place on Thursday, 28 January 2021. 14:00 – 17:30 CET

The workshop is organized by the Institute for Advanced Sustainability Studies (IASS), the Institute for Sustainable Development and International Relations (IDDRI), and TMG-Think Tank for Sustainability, together with the German Environment Agency (UBA), the German Federal Ministry of the Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety and the European Commission.

The aim of this interactive workshop is to explore possible pathways to address the effects of the COVID-19 crisis in marine regions. It will bring together actors from different marine regions to (i) discuss the socio-economic and environmental impacts of COVID-19 in marine regions, (ii) explore options for immediate responses and longer-term recovery; and (iii) discuss impacts on regional cooperation and possible consequences for ocean governance.

The workshop builds on the Marine Regions Forum 2019, which gathered over 200 international ocean actors to discuss new approaches to strengthen regional ocean governance processes.

Please note the participation in the workshop is invitation-based only, as there are limited spaces available.
