The high-level 2025 United Nations Conference to Support the Implementation of Sustainable Development Goal 14: Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development (the 2025 UN Ocean Conference) will be co-hosted by France and Costa Rica.
The theme of the Conference is “Accelerating action and mobilizing all actors to conserve and sustainably use the ocean." The Conference aims to support further and urgent action to conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas, and marine resources for sustainable development and identify further ways and means to support the implementation of SDG 14.
It will build on existing instruments to form successful partnerships toward the swift conclusion and effective implementation of ongoing processes that contribute to the conservation and sustainable use of the ocean.
