The UN 2030\u00a0Agenda for Sustainable Development is a\u00a0global vision that provides the framework for the actions needed to\u00a0tackle the major challenges of mankind, including Climate Change (SDG-13) and Ocean Life sustainability (SDG-14). This international Agenda is set in a\u00a0context of a\u00a0climate emergency and global environmental change. There is an urgent need to\u00a0provide the data, information and knowledge to\u00a0society to\u00a0monitor, understand and mitigate against these changes, and to\u00a0empower citizens to\u00a0understand, feel connected, and to\u00a0change their behavior and transform their lifestyles towards sustainable living. The UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021-2030) is the mechanism for inter- and multidisciplinary studies of the ocean that provides the knowledge to\u00a0increase the awareness about the changes, and to\u00a0build the capacity to\u00a0realize effective adaptation to\u00a0the changes.<\/p>\n
During the panel we discussed the climate\/ocean related programs and their elements that are generating knowledge, which we have divided into three levels: global, regional and local. We also discussed the level of awareness of ocean and climate issues among global citizens\/professionals\/policy makers, etc.<\/p>\n
Through the panel we provided the context relating to the level of the available climate and ocean knowledge as well as examples of best practices in climate and ocean approaches to share properly tailored knowledge.<\/p>\n
