Ocean data webinars for the UN Ocean Decade

With this in mind, the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (UNESCO) has identified 10 ocean-related challenges to focus research that will help lead to more sustainable use of oceans and marine resources.

In this context, EUMETSAT, one of the key contributors to the Copernicus Programme, is jointly organising a series of ocean webinars in partnership with other European entities involved in the collection and delivery of marine data, such as the Copernicus Marine Service (implemented by Mercator Ocean International),the European Marine Observation and Data Network (EMODnet). The webinars also involve the early career ocean professionals (ECOP) programme, and the UN Ocean Decade Coordination Office. 

These webinars will focus on how European initiatives and data from Copernicus and other data sources can contribute to the UN Ocean Decade goals of sustainable use and protection of our oceans.
Final webinar

There have now been three webinars of the series of four and they are all available on YouTube.

The fourth and last webinar will cover a wide range of topics, from expanding the Global Ocean Observing System to the EDITO - European Digital Twin Ocean, citizen science and ocean literacy. Register directly here.
