The Fifth Global Dialogue on Sustainable Ocean Development will bring together multi-disciplinary stakeholders from governments, international organizations, academia and research institutions, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and others to discuss the progress and future pathways towards sustainable ocean development. The event will consider the role of complex, trans-disciplinary approaches in moving towards a sustainable blue economy, including sessions on sustainable ocean planning and environmental economic accounting.

The Global Ocean Accounts Partnership (GOAP) is hosting the Dialogue. GOAP is a global, multi-institutional partnership established to enable countries and other stakeholders to go beyond gross domestic product (GDP) to measure and manage progress toward sustainable ocean development. The Government of Indonesia’s Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries and Charles Darwin Foundation for the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador, co-chair the GOAP. The Partnership brings together governments, international organizations, and research institutions to build a global community of practice for ocean accounting.

The Dialogue will explore the use of ocean accounting for sustainable ocean development processes, including implementation of marine spatial planning, ocean-based climate action, and sustainable finance. The event will begin with two days of interactive training sessions, followed by three days of interactive side events and working groups.
