Public awareness: After several years of observations, Olivier Anrigo, environmental photographer, takes us on an expedition to Norway, Lapland, Spitzbergen… Let’s meet on these lands and oceans still little damaged by Man, now threatened by global warming, to become aware of the urgency, and bring a hopeful look on the actions to be implemented to preserve them.

The future ocean – what will it look like? Appreciation of our global ocean today is expanding, yet also revealing diverse views around trajectories of exploration and exploitation, requiring leadership at all scales and hearing many stories. This event will highlight leadership journeys from a global community of ocean leaders, who are making a difference where they live and work, and provide an opportunity for participants to share their stories as well.

Nature-based solutions can help manage human impacts and tackle climate change to preserve ecosystems, their functions and the services they provide for human well-being. This event explains how Marine Sanctuaries and MPAs contribute to the protection of marine, coastal and offshore ecosystems, on which lies de facto the future of our society, in the perspective of a “socially, economically and environmentally” sustainable development. A first panel will explain the bioecological characteristics of the Pelagos Sanctuary and the impact of anthropogenic activities (panel moderated by Costanza Favilli). A second panel will explain how this can become a socially beneficial investment (panel moderated by Nathalie Hilmi).

This 48-hour workshop will bring together 20 international scientists to lay the groundwork for a scientific report on “Plastics and Global Health”, which aims to increase the understanding of scientists, policy makers and civil society on how the uncontrolled production of plastics and the unregulated disposal of chemically-laden plastic waste is harming the planet, fouling the oceans, damaging the ecosystems that support all life on earth, and ultimately causing human illness, disability and premature death in countries around the world.

The theme of this inaugural summit is: Fostering global collaboration to accelerate plastics recycling and redesign.
The plastics pollution crisis is one of the most urgent challenges of our time. While plastic pollution is a global problem, research and innovation in this area is not yet globally connected. However, the steps to ultimately tackle this problem will necessitate collaboration and perspective on a global scale.To that end, the first annual World Plastics Summit is being organized to assemble international research leaders in plastics recycling and redesign in Monaco. This meeting will be held on March 24-26 at the Novotel Monte Carlo Hotelas part of the prestigiousMonaco Ocean Week 2022.

The Mediterranean basin is at the crossroads of the fight against biodiversity erosion, adaptation to climate change and development of societies. This event proposes to illustrate, through the interventions of specialists and testimonies of field actors, how Nature-based Solutions can provide concrete and sustainable answers to these challenges.

The Seaweed Day will cast light on one of the most promising regenerative ocean industry: seaweed. The event will propose a series of presentations by world-class experts discussing the potential of seaweed, its ecosystem services – with a focus on blue carbon and biodiversity, and the growing momentum around seaweed in Europe and Australia. The event will also feature numerous presentations from seaweed companies developing innovative products like bio-packaging, plant-based seafood or animal feed. Many seaweed products will be displayed in the event so the public can “touch” the diversity of applications of seaweed.
