IOC-WESTPAC – Thailand
Sasakawa Global Ocean Institute, World Maritime University – Sweden
Hosted within the IOC Sub-Commission for the Western Pacific and supported by Thailand, the WESTPAC Decade Coordination Office will coordinate Decade Actions across all Ocean Decade Challenges in the Western Pacific region and its adjacent areas.
It will assure the creation of synergies and links between existing Decade Actions, catalyse new Decade Actions, and coordinate monitoring and evaluation of Decade progress in the region. The DCO will ensure close interactions with the South Pacific DCC hosted in PCCOS to avoid overlap and maximize the Decade benefits to SIDS in the South Pacific region.
