This year’s MARE XIII People and the Sea conference, entitled Tensions, Trade-offs, and Transformations for the Ocean Decade and Beyond, focuses on the balance between tensions, trade-offs, and the potential transformations required for the future of sustainable marine resource management and governance, thriving coastal livelihoods and healthy, biodiverse oceans.
The conference takes place right in the middle of the Ocean decade (2020-2030) and MARE seizes the opportunity to reflect on where we currently stand using the ‘People and the Sea’ lens.
