UNCTAD Ocean Economy and Fisheries

UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD), en colaboración con MINCETUR Perú y SECO Economic Cooperation and Development , organiza una capacitación específica orientada a alinear las políticas comerciales con la #SostenibilidadAmbiental en Perú. Este taller reunirá a funcionarios gubernamentales y actores clave de la industria para debatir sobre los vínculos esenciales entre el comercio y el medio ambiente en un mercado global en transformación. A medida que aumentan las demandas de consumidores y reguladores para prácticas sostenibles, esta capacitación aborda: 🎯 La relación entre comercio y medio ambiente y los flujos comerciales de los bienes y servicios ambientales 🎯 El impacto de las #NormasAmbientales en las exportaciones agrícolas 🎯 El precio del carbono y el rol del comercio en la acción climática 🎯 La contaminación #plástica y la #EconomíaCircular 🎯 La #EconomíaOceánica y el acuerdo de subsidios a la pesca de la OMC Con presentaciones técnicas y estudios de caso, esta sesión equipa a responsables de políticas y partes interesadas para enfrentar prácticas comerciales sostenibles.

🐡‼️ I am thrilled to share UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD)’s latest technical note, offering the first ever mapping of ocean-related measures in the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) of Small Island Developing States (SIDS). 🌊 Oceans are critical to SIDS - not only as key economic drivers through fisheries, tourism and trade, but also as vital buffers against the devastating impacts of climate change. These countries face disproportionate risks from rising sea levels, extreme weather and ocean degradation, which threaten their livelihoods, ecosystems and even their survival. 🐠 This publication is unique in directly responding to UNCTAD’s action on climate and the SIDS Strategy under the Antigua and Barbuda Agenda (ABBAs). It follows on from UNFCCC COP29 and serves as a key resource as we prepare for the 5th Ocean Forum next year. 🌍 The analysis of 606 ocean measures submitted by SIDS shows a strong focus on adaptation and resilience. However, it also highlights the urgent need for global support - financial, technical and trade-related - to help these nations achieve their ambitious climate goals while protecting their oceans and economies.

UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD) is proud to release its latest technical note analysing ocean-related measures in the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) of Small Island Developing States (SIDS). 
 The report sheds light on:
 🌊 The strategies SIDS use to develop sustainable ocean economies and conserve marine ecosystems. 📊 606 ocean measures, with a strong focus on adaptation and resilience to address immediate climate risks. 🌎 Practical recommendations for strengthening the next iteration of NDCs (NDC 3.0), set for 2025. As we prepare for the 2025 UN Ocean Conference, this analysis underscores the importance of global solidarity in addressing the urgent challenges that SIDS face from climate change.

A new UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD) report offers the first-ever mapping of ocean-related measures in the national climate plans of small island developing states (SIDS). 🌊 Oceans are critical to SIDS not only as key economic drivers through fisheries, tourism and trade, but also as vital buffers against the devastating impacts of climate change. These countries face disproportionate risks from rising sea levels, extreme weather and ocean degradation, which threaten their livelihoods, ecosystems and even their survival. 🌍 The analysis of 606 ocean measures submitted by SIDS shows a strong focus on adaptation and resilience. However, it also highlights the urgent need for global support - financial, technical and trade-related - to help these nations achieve their ambitious climate goals while protecting their oceans and economies. 🌍 In Africa, the report shows that São Tomé and Príncipe is among the countries with the largest share of marine fisheries measures. It's also among the countries with the highest share of measures relating to aquaculture and hatcheries in their plans, and its marine fisheries measures focus on adaptation.
