70 % of the Earth’s surface is Ocean. Beneath the surface lies a complex web of global governance. Who decides how to manage the ocean in a way that is fair and equitable to both the marine environment and humans who rely on the sea for their livelihoods?
Episode 1 of ‘Negotiating the Ocean’ explores the idea of Ocean Equity and how it can be applied to the high-level international talks governing and managing the ocean and its resources. We meet ANCORS researchers who work on different aspects of Ocean Equity, including fisheries, climate change, pollution, deep sea mining, renewable energy, and more.
We ask the big questions:
- Who gets to fish, where, and how much?
- How is climate change being factored into decision-making?
- How are responsibility and costs for environmental protection shared between developed and developing countries?
- How can benefits from minerals and genetic material be shared equitably?
- Who gets a seat at the decision-making table and is a diversity of voices being heard?
- And, what is the role of future generations and planetary health?
Join us for this first episode of negotiating the ocean and meet a collective of ANCORS experts passionate about reshaping the way global society relates to and looks after the Ocean.
