Negotiating the Ocean

The ⁠ANCORS Ocean Equity⁠ Podcast

The ⁠ANCORS Ocean Equity⁠ Podcast Negotiating the Ocean peeks below the surface of international ocean governance. We take you behind the scenes of ocean negotiations on biodiversity, fisheries and deep-sea mining and ask the big questions around equity and social justice.

Marine biodiversity, fisheries, deep-sea mining, climate change, and pollution are all inherently international issues and require cooperation at multiple levels. Negotiating the Ocean from ANCORS is your audio guide to navigate these high seas negotiations.

Each episode we’ll talk to experts around the world about the challenges facing the ocean and how the global community is trying to address them. Above all, we’ll look at these issues through the lens of equity, which means the process needs to be inclusive of different voices –because outcomes of the negotiations affect us all. 

So, whether you live by the ocean or far away, plan to attend the upcoming negotiations as part of a delegation or are an ocean enthusiast – this podcast is for you.

Episode 1

70 % of the Earth’s surface is Ocean. Beneath the surface lies a complex web of global governance. Who decides how to manage the ocean in a way that is fair and equitable to both the marine environment and humans who rely on the sea for their livelihoods?
 

Episode 1 of ‘Negotiating the Ocean’ explores the idea of Ocean Equity and how it can be applied to the high-level international talks governing and managing the ocean and its resources. We meet ANCORS researchers who work on different aspects of Ocean Equity, including fisheries, climate change, pollution, deep sea mining, renewable energy, and more.
