It can also be a tool to help achieve many #SDGs set by @UNOceanDecade.

@DeepStewardship and experts discussed the #BBNJ Treaty and the next steps.

Plastic pollution is a huge problem for small island nations.

Most islands do not have waste management facilities due to limited space. At the same time, mismanaged plastic waste from other countries arrives at their shores.

What can we do? https://t.co/u6vCvX45mu #SIDS4

[UN Development @UNDP]

✨ Young voices are crucial in tackling the challenges of citizen security, climate change & renewable energy.

Biodiversity provides us with everything we need to survive:
