Friends of Ocean Action
www.friendsofoceanaction.orgFriends of Ocean Action is a unique, informal group of over 70 global ocean leaders from a range of sectors who are fast-tracking solutions to the most pressing challenges facing the ocean. Its members – the Friends – come from business, civil society, international organizations, science and technology. Friends of Ocean Action is hosted by the World Economic Forum in collaboration with the World Resources Institute. Working alongside the High Level Panel for a Sustainable Ocean Economy, we aim to drive meaningful action and transformative, high-impact and scalable initiatives for ocean health by 2030, supporting the targets of the Sustainable Development Goal for the ocean, SDG14. Our work to advance a healthy, thriving ocean falls mainly into the following impact pillars: Activating ocean finance; Building a resilient ocean; Creating a digital ocean; Nourishing billions; and UpLink Ocean. We also integrate critical cross-cutting priorities, from ocean equity and gender parity in the ocean space to advancing ocean action in China and reversing marine biodiversity loss. Our Co-Chairs are Ambassador Peter Thomson, UN Secretary-General's Special Envoy for the Ocean, and HE Isabella Lövin, Former Deputy Prime Minister of Sweden. See the full list of Friends on the 'WHO WE ARE' tab of our website, friendsofoceanaction.org. Follow us on Twitter for more news and updates @FriendsofOcean.
