Organized in advance of the Summit at the leaders’ level, on February 9th and 10th , the Workshops, Forums and Events are shaped as creative symposium to amplify the action plans for the ocean, to renew hope and ambition by mobilizing all the main ocean actors: scientists, practitioners, multilateral actors, government officials, European Commissioners, local governments, ensuring parity, geographic diversity and youth inclusion.

This major international debate on the Ocean enables knowledge to be shared and approaches to be crossed, particularly by integrating climate change, in order to better anticipate oceanic crises and technological, scientific and environmental transformations. Each workshop proposes, in the form of a “Call for action”, solutions to take concrete action in the face of major maritime challenges.
