The Living Oceans Foundation participated in the Second Foundations Dialogue Meeting in Morocco, coming together with other ocean-focused foundations from around the world to address the major challenges facing our oceans. Organized by the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO, the Foundations Dialogue Group provides a platform for the philanthropic community to collaborate and work together to move the needle toward ocean conservation. The group seeks to address how foundations can align their efforts to achieve the bold ambitions of the United Nations Ocean Decade for Sustainable Development (‘Ocean Decade’).
At the meeting, KSLOF participated in a plenary session, “Uptake of Ocean Science,” and spoke about how we can ensure that issues of usability and uptake are built into initiatives from the outset when we are working with local communities and managers on ocean conservation.
