El GO-BC mejorará la comprensión del nexo entre el océano y el clima y generará nuevos conocimientos y soluciones para mitigar los efectos del cambio climático.
Recognising the multiple roles BC ecosystems play beyond mitigation, including adaptation and resilience to the effects of climate change, allows GO-BC to address climate responses comprehensively, while supporting people and biodiversity. GO-BC actions will go beyond the traditional focus on coastal ecosystems to deliver new outcomes across estuarine-coastal-open ocean environments.
GO-BC will address SDGs 13, 14 and 17 through enhanced scientific cooperation at all levels, including:
- codesign and implement new research to promote Nature-based Solutions for better ocean sustainability;
- enhance global to regional collaborative efforts;
- coordinate capacity building in blue carbon science; and
- communicate and deliver outputs to policy makers and communities.
