Episode 17 - The third UN Ocean Conference, Nice, June 2025
Description
In this episode Seabed 2030 Head of Partnerships Steve Hall reports on the UN Ocean Conference that was held in Nice in June 2025, with the main podcast going through a summary of what happened during the event, and then a 20 minute appendix where he reads through the Nice Ocean Action Plan.
Too much happened in the many side events to cover all aspects, so we've focused on the parts where we were present.
As well as Steve's narration, there are short recordings of Nippon Foundation Chairman Sasakawa speaking in Nice during the Global Ocean Data Sharing side event on Monday 9th June, and a clip of Seabed 2030 Director Jamie McMichael-Phillips during his panel session at the Economist World Ocean Initiative event on Tuesday 10th June.
Steve also updates listeners on the latest update to percentage of ocean floor mapped, which was announced as 27.3% on World Hydrography Day, 21st June 2025.
