Ocean Science Roadmap for UNESCO Marine World Heritage in the context of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021-2030)
UNESCO (2021). Ocean Science Roadmap for UNESCO Marine World Heritage in the context of the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021-2030). United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO): Paris. 16 pp.
The Roadmap reveals that 75% of marine World Heritage sites are unprepared for the impacts of climate change, because of a lack of scientific knowledge. It identifies critical science gaps that impede the sustainable protection of marine World Heritage sites in an uncertain future and calls for vastly increased investment through the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021 -2030) (‘Ocean Decade’).
