We're excited to announce a new suite of projects focused on including Indigenous Knowledge in ocean and coastal decision-making. These initiatives aim to bridge traditional wisdom and contemporary management for effective marine conservation. lenfestocean.org/en/news-and-pu…

Conservation makes a difference. In two-thirds of cases, according to a new study, conservation either improved the state of biodiversity or at least slowed declines. We simply need more conservation. science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

🚨Paper Alert🚨 ⚠️Over 80% of the #EU’s #MPAs only marginally regulates human activities. 🤏0.2% are #fully or #highly protected. 🌊Reaching the EU’s 10% strict protection target will require radical changes to the regulation of activities in EU MPAs. doi.org/10.1016/j.onee…

#MarineProtectedAreas have been set up globally to protect 30% of the #ocean by 2030. But different MPA types yield different results. Dr. Jenna Sullivan-Stack Joachim Claudet et al. show how standardized assessments of MPAs can inform actions to achieve targets doi.org/10.1016/j.marp…
