This major international debate on the Ocean provides an opportunity to share knowledge and cross approaches, particularly by integrating climate change, in order to better anticipate oceanic crises and technological, scientific and environmental transformations. Each workshop proposes, in the form of a "Call for action", solutions for concrete action to meet the major maritime challenges.
The workshops and forums are held simultaneously in English and French and are organised in a hybrid format (face-to-face and video). They are co-chaired by an international chair and a host country chair.
