The Ocean & Climate Platform's mission is to promote reflection and exchanges between the scientific community, civil society and political decision-makers in order to take better account of the ocean in the fight against climate change.

“The ocean is a source of solutions. To meet current challenges and move from science to political action, consultation is essential to ensure that knowledge of the links between the ocean, climate and biodiversity is shared with as many people as possible."
