2022 ECOSOC Youth Forum - Thematic Breakout Session: Youth Action for SDG 14

UN DESA, the Oceans Youth Constituency of the Major Group of Children and Youth, UNEP and UN Global Compact are organizing a special session on Youth Action for SDG 14, given the critical role that young people have in the conservation and sustainable use of oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development. This session will provide a unique platform for youth to showcase ideas, recommendations, innovations, youth-led solutions and actions, to “Save our ocean, Protect our future”. It will also contribute to raising awareness among youth of the 2022 United Nations Ocean Conference in late June and the review of SDG 14 at 2022 High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development (HLPF), the implementation of the Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development, as well as other related processes.

4th Oceans Forum on trade-related aspects of Sustainable Development Goal 14

The ocean’s resources sustain the livelihoods of about 3 billion people worldwide, the vast majority of whom live in developing countries. But those livelihoods are under threat, as the ocean and its ability to sustain life are in grave danger due to human activities, such as pollution and overfishing. Every year, an estimated 5 to 12 million metric tonnes of plastic flow into the ocean, which represents 95% of our planet’s biosphere. And due to overfishing, the percentage of fish stocks within biologically sustainable levels fell from 90% in 1990 to less than 66% in 2017. The 4th Oceans Forum, to be held from 6 to 8 April 2022, is a unique platform to identify ways to change course. It’s an opportunity to find solutions for using trade as a tool to protect our ocean and its resources, accelerating the implementation of Sustainable Development Goal 14’s trade-related targets.

Virtual Briefing on Local and Regional Governments and SDG 14 implementation: Mobilizing commitments towards the 2022 United Nations Ocean Conference

Many coastal cities and regions around the world are directly threatened by climate change and related risks, including sea-level rise, as well as the increase in extreme weather events that affect people’s lives, ecosystems and economies. While several coastal cities and regions are developing plans on how to adapt to climate change, not all are prepared well enough. Furthermore, many citizens of coastal cities and regions depend directly on the ocean for their livelihoods, making it important to promote peer learning and sharing of good practices amongst cities and regions on how to promote a Blue Economy, encourage the sustainable use of ocean resources for economic growth, improve livelihoods and jobs, while protecting the ocean ecosystem health. 

The 2022 UN Ocean Conference offers a unique opportunity for coastal cities and regions to mobilize and demonstrate leadership in taking action to protect our ocean and ensure that the ocean and its accompanying coast are sustainably managed.

Funding the Sustainable Blue Economy

The transition to a sustainable blue economy is an opportunity for financial institutions, governments and other stakeholders to re-cast how we use, manage, and protect ocean resources, while contributing to climate change mitigation in line with the UN SDGs 13 – Climate Action, 14 – Life Below Water and 15 - Life on land. The immense potential of the ocean’s contribution to mitigation of and adaptation to climate change is being more widely appreciated, but funding for the Sustainable Blue Economy (SBE) remains at exceptionally low levels thereby limiting its potential. For most financial institutions, whether investors, insurers, or banks, and regardless of focus, size or breadth, the ocean and marine ecosystems are unchartered territory.

Seaweed as a Nature-based Solution for Climate Change

This session discusses how seaweed, or marine macroalgae, can be a significant nature-based climate solution with large scaling potential that can directly sequester carbon and indirectly displace greenhouse gas emissions in numerous ways. Moreover, sustainable seaweed production and farming has clear economic and ecological co-benefits that make it a form of “charismatic carbon” and a holistic nature-based climate solution. Discussions center on the UN Global Compact recently launched ‘Seaweed as a Nature-based Solution for Climate Change’ vision statement.

Blue Food: Businesses Bridging Nutrition Needs with Climate Action

The recent Blue Food Assessment found that blue foods on average have much greater nutritional benefits than terrestrial animal foods, and many also have a smaller environmental footprint. More still needs to be done to translate this message to a broader policy audience and establish Blue Food as a pillar of nutritional and environmental policy. Many seafood companies are also taking action to reduce emissions through setting bold science-based targets, supported by collaboration across the entire value chain. This session will bring together executives to discuss what the seafood industry is doing to advance climate action, in turn, supporting global food security.

Implementing SDG 14 with the Communities of Ocean Action

The forthcoming Ocean Conference, co-hosted by the Governments of Kenya and Portugal, will come at a critical time as the world is strengthening its efforts to mobilize, create and drive solutions to realize the 17 Sustainable Development Goals by 2030 in the context of an ongoing global pandemic. How we respond to COVID-19 beyond the immediate and necessary recovery of health and livelihoods will likely determine not only whether we will reach SDG 14, but also how sustainable the world of tomorrow will be.
