Under the leadership of UNESCO’s Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission, the Ocean Decade has already galvanized thousands of partners around the world to start delivering the science we need for the ocean we want.

Barcelona, Spain, is gearing up to become the world’s capital of the ocean for a week as it hosts the 2024 Ocean Decade Conference from April 10 to 12 at the Barcelona International Convention Center (CCIB), the highlight of an entire Ocean Decade Week running between April 8 and 12.
Within this framework, a groundbreaking gathering of international thought leaders, policymakers, scientists and advocates will come together to celebrate and evaluate the progress made four years into the implementation of the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021-2030), or ‘Ocean Decade’, and set joint priorities for the future of the global movement.
