,,The flow of central ocean governance concepts:
How it supports better protection of the marine environment, including biodiversity
The global ocean governance is generally characterised by its fragmentation and multiplicity of levels, intergovernmental processes, binding and non-binding instruments, sui-generis arrangements, a diversity of mandate types and scopes, some partly overlapping, as well as a great diversity of public and private actors engaged at different geographic scales; all this resulting in extreme multidisciplinary complexity.
However, this poster will focus on showing how the flow of central concepts in ocean governance is a systemic source of integration between these many parts of the ocean regime complex, and how it supports better protection of the marine environment. It will feature infographics with an overview of this fragmented legal and institutional infrastructure at global and regional levels as well as pathways for the flow of these central ocean governance concepts.
