SUMMARY:2013-2023 | 10 years of the Galway Statement
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating a decade of marine research cooperation along and across the Atlantic Ocean – Our Shared Resource\n\nThe event is co-organised by Irish Government\, the European Commission\, the Marine Institute\, and the University of Galway. It will be a hybrid event held in Galway\, Ireland\, on 5-6 July 2023\, bringing together European and international Atlantic partners and actors.\n\n\n\n\nMuch has happened since the Galway Statement was signed in May 2013 between Canada\, the European Union and the United States of America.  More than 1000 research teams have started to map the North Atlantic seabed\, discovered new deep-water volcanoes and species\, studied the effects of deep-sea mining and the changing climate on the biodiversity\, created a network of floating universities\, shared research infrastructures in the Atlantic and Arctic regions\, and much else. These successes have led to a new ocean-scale cooperation\, culminating in the signing of the All-Atlantic Ocean Research and Innovation Alliance Declaration in Washington DC.\n\nThis event will also lead the way up towards the 2023 All-Atlantic Forum in South Africa\, and it will interconnect with new strategic mobilisation initiatives that have also been launched in Europe\, such as the Mission ‘Restore our Ocean and Waters’\, with its Atlantic and Arctic lighthouse. Furthermore\, it will empower future Atlantic stewards and ensure that all of these initiatives support the UN Decade of Ocean Science and the UN Sustainable Development Agenda 2030.\n\n\n\nFor more information\, click here.

SUMMARY:European Marine Board | EuroSea foresight workshop
DESCRIPTION:The European Marine Board is organising a foresight workshop titled “Ensuring accurate climate related predictions in Europe by 2035” from 15 to 16 March 2023 in Brussels. \nThis workshop is supported by the Innovation Action “EuroSea”\, one of the European Union’s contributions to the G7 Future of Seas and Oceans Flagship Initiative. The EuroSea foresight workshop will consider the Ocean Observation System in 2035\, and look for pathways to ensure its sustainability in all European Ocean basins to deliver accessible\, timely\, and actionable information to all users who rely on this system. The expected outcomes of this workshop are key recommendations for mechanisms to sustainably fund and coordinate Ocean observation\, prediction and information delivery in Europe. These will inform a report on recommendations to the Framework of the European Ocean Observing System (EOOS). \nEuroSea (eurosea.eu) is a European-funded project working to improve the European ocean observing and forecasting system in a global context. The project brings together key European actors of ocean observing and forecasting with users of oceanographic products and services. \nFor more information: www.marineboard.eu/events/eurosea-foresight-workshop \n
