Advancing the Marine Conservation Breakthroughs: Connecting Global Action to Scale Nature-Based Solutions

October 27 @ 15h00 - 16h30 BMT

Resulting from the joint efforts of the Marrakech Partnership on Ocean & Coastal Zones and the High Level Climate Champions, this high-level leadership session will unite the Coral Reef Breakthrough, Mangrove Breakthrough, Seagrass Breakthrough, and Ocean Breakthroughs, to showcase how coastal and marine ecosystems can drive progress on both global biodiversity and climate goals.

These Breakthroughs harness the power of Nature-Based Solutions to address biodiversity conservation, climate adaptation and mitigation, making them key to accelerating the implementation of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework and the Paris Agreement.

To power the 2030 Marine Conservation Breakthrough goal of investing at least 72 USD billion to secure the integrity of ocean ecosystems by protecting, restoring, and conserving at least 30% of the ocean for the benefit of people, climate, and nature – this session will emphasize cross-sectoral partnerships, bringing stakeholders from  finance, policy, and science.

The event will feature a “Implementation is Now” segment, followed by two panel discussions that will bring together governments, finance, private sector, and expert practitioners to showcase concrete opportunities and initiative.. The event will also invite the developing Marine Conservation Breakthroughs delivery partners –- the Seagrass Breakthrough, and the Kelp Breakthrough, to share updates and progress since COP28.
