Marine ecosystems and their associated biodiversity sustain life on Earth hold intrinsic value. Critical marine ecosystem services include maintenance of global oxygen carbon cycles, production food energy, sustenance human wellbeing. However are swiftly being degraded due to the unsustainable use environments a rapidly changing climate. The fundamental challenge for future is therefore safeguard biodiversity, function, adaptive capacity whilst continuing provide vital resources population. Here, we foresighting/hindcasting consider two plausible futures towards 2030: business-as-usual trajectory (i.e. continuation current trends), more sustainable but technically achievable in line with UN Sustainable Development Goals. We identify key drivers that differentiate these alternative develop an action pathway desirable, future. Key achieving will be establishing integrative across jurisdictions sectors), management supports equitable stewardship environments. Conserving require recalibrating our social, financial, industrial relationships environment. While requires long-term planning commitment beyond 2030, immediate needed avoid tipping points avert trajectories decline. By acting now optimise protection ecosystems, building upon existing technologies, conserving remaining can create best opportunity 2030 beyond.

Inequity is ubiquitous in the ocean, and social equity receives insufficient attention ocean governance management efforts. Thus, we assert that proponents of sustainability must center future governance, to address past environmental injustices, align with international law conservation policy, realize objectives sustainability. This obligation applies across all marine policy realms, including conservation, fisheries management, climate adaptation economy, socio-political contexts at different geographical scales. Indeed, many governmental, non-governmental, philanthropic organizations are striving advance their focused agendas, policies, programs, initiatives, portfolios. To date, however, there has been limited how meaningfully assess status monitor progress on (aka “ocean equity”) realms. Here, contribute ongoing efforts through providing guidance five steps develop bespoke, fit purpose contextually appropriate assessment monitoring frameworks approaches measure track changes equity. These include: 1) Clearly articulating overarching aim; 2) Convening a participatory group process co-design framework; 3) Identifying important objectives, aspects attributes assess; 4) Selecting developing indicators, methods, measures; 5) Collecting, analyzing evaluating data. Then, discuss four subsequent take into account ensure assessments lead adaptations or transformations improve Communicating results reach key audiences, enable learning inform decision-making; Deliberating actions selecting interventions equity; Ensuring implemented; and, Committing continual cycles monitoring, evaluation, adapting regular intervals. Following these could change oceans governed. The diligent pursuit will help course towards sustainable more representative, inclusive just.

The Blue Economy (BE) has captured the attention of diverse interests to ocean and there is rising concern about making it more equitable inclusive. As currently stands, diversity, social equity, inclusion considerations have not been foregrounded in discourse surrounding BE are continuously overlooked undervalued. This paper reviews ongoing inequalities distribution benefits costs across different groups society. It also explores why equity matters, how can be achieved. Mirroring call for under-represented or marginalized receive a fair share returns, which may than they received date. Our analysis shows that between 1988 2017, Germany–based company registered 39% all known marine genetic resources, while three companies Asia control 30% market seafood sector 2018. These findings show high consolidation space by top corporations. Therefore, this argues exclusion within investments undermine ocean-based activities such as wildlife conservation initiatives disrupt sustainability agenda.

Abstract Knowledge co-production offers a promising approach to design effective and equitable pathways reach development goals. Fisheries Strategies for Changing Oceans Resilient Ecosystems by 2030 (FishSCORE), United Nations Ocean Decade programme, will co-produce knowledge that advances solutions climate resilient fisheries through networks partnerships include scientists, stakeholders, practitioners, managers, policy experts. FishSCORE establish (1) global network develop broadly relevant information tools assess operationalize resilience in marine (2) local regional apply those identify forward context-specific strategies. FishSCORE's activities be guided set of core principles commitments inclusivity, equity, co-leadership, co-ownership, reciprocity. focus on identifying fisheries, it also advance goals associated with capacity, power, agency support iterative, pluralistic approaches decision-making experiencing ongoing climate-driven changes. This process co-producing strategies requires considerable investments time from all partners, which is well aligned the Decade. However, secure funding must prioritized implement over this long horizon.

As marine spatial planning (MSP) continues to gain global prominence as an approach ocean governance, planners and other stakeholders are eager evaluate its social ecological outcomes better understand whether plans achieving their intended results in equitable cost-efficient manner. While a plan's for environments coastal communities may be of particular interest, these cannot separated from processes. The field has yet fully develop the guidance necessary this critical consideration how features MSP process external factors interact with plan performance outcomes. To fill gap we used literature review expert discussions identify 19 enabling or disabling conditions within four major categories: Plan Attributes, Legal Context, Development Social Integration. We propose semi-quantitative scoring development narratives operationalize framework part comprehensive methodology outcome evaluation. Applying can add depth quantitative evaluation, shed light on questions attribution, inform adaptation. Evaluating explicit context identified here stimulate discussion around what works provide path forward assessing benefits costs worldwide. By identifying instrumental effective MSP, alternatively, hindering plan, guide adaptation promote learning across wider community.
