STARTING THE PREPARATION OF THE DECADE Interim Executive Planning => Planning Group Group => ROADMAP
Societal outcomes A Clean Ocean Sources of pollution are identified, quantified and reduced, and pollutants removed from the Ocean. A healthy and resilient Ocean Marine ecosystems are mapped and protected, multiple impacts, including climate change, are measured and reduced, and the provision of Ocean ecosystem services is maintained. A predicted Ocean Society has the capacity to understand current and future Ocean conditions, forecast their change and impact on human wellbeing and livelihoods.
The Decade will be mission-oriented A safe Ocean Human communities are protected from ocean hazards and the safety of operations at sea and on the coast is guaranteed. A Sustainable Productive Ocean The provision of food supply and alternative livelihoods are secured. A transparent and accessible Ocean All nations, stakeholders and citizens have access to ocean data and information, technologies, and are capable of making informed decisions.

First Global Planning Meeting Outputs It is critical to keep the central mission of the Decade in mind at all times: Ocean Science for Sustainable Development, not just ocean science. Addressing sustainable development issues will require interdisciplinary and trans-disciplinary approaches with a broad range of stakeholders, with a critical need for the social sciences to be included in the early design of the programme and in every societal area. If the Decade does not lead to significant capacity development, particularly for SIDS and LCDs, it will be a failure. The Decade must make Ocean Literacy a priority, for youth, the general public, policy makers and business sectors. The Decade should create an “Ocean Generation” of informed citizens.
First Global Planning Meeting Outputs The Observing System is currently unsustainable. The success of the Decade and its legacy depend on making the observing system sustainable, both in infrastructure and financial support. Achieving the goals of the Decade will require a conscious adoption and promotion of a new ocean narrative that acknowledges that challenges are unprecedented and complex but not insurmountable, and that new science – carried out through new partnerships and taking advantage of advances in technology and innovation – will be able to address these challenges. New technology and innovations are needed for every aspect of Decade science: data sharing and management, observing systems, measurement techniques, communication and visualisation, pollution mitigation, citizen science technologies, and capacity development.
First Global Planning Meeting Outputs The Decade must lead to a data sharing revolution. The Decade must develop guidelines for implementation, access, and sharing to make data FAIR – Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. The Decade should establish an ethical compact for data sharing to encourage timely data release and open sharing. New partnerships with other stakeholders, particularly the Blue Economy sector and the Insurance sector, will be essential to meet the goals of the Decade, both in terms of developing the science needed for sustainable use of the ocean and its resources, and in terms of partnerships for augmenting observing systems and data sharing from private sector platforms (merchant ships, oil and gas platforms, fishing fleets, wind farms, submarine cables, aquaculture infrastructure, exploration platforms, etc.), and increasing data streams, financing, and outreach. Young professionals, who represent the generation that will do the work of the Decade and carry on its legacy, must be involved in the design of the Decade.
