The Ocean Sciences Meeting 2026 is a major international scientific conference that brings together oceanographers, climate researchers, policymakers, and students to share the latest discoveries in marine and freshwater science.

The European Ocean Days is a week-long event with a series of dynamic and interconnected sessions focused on key ocean-related themes, all designed to encourage participants to engage across topics and contribute to a shared vision for the prosperity, competitiveness, security and sustainability of our ocean.

This event will bring together representatives from regions, cities, ports, and islands to celebrate the growing community supporting the Mission Ocean and Waters. The fully interactive session will invite participants to share their experiences and show how their actions make a difference. Building on the shared vision for restoring the ocean and waters, set out in the European Ocean Pact and the Water Resilience Strategy, the event will spotlight the communities active across the four Mission Lighthouse sea and river basins, showcasing successful initiatives, exploring the value of different forms of support and technical assistance, and discussing lessons learnt and remaining needs.

The fourth Annual Forum of the Mission 'Restore our Ocean and Waters' aims at taking stock of the Mission's progress and major achievements, at mobilising relevant actors around key Mission deliverables for the deployment phase. The event will showcase innovative solutions developed under the Mission, discuss how key stakeholders, such as the regions, local authorities and the private sectors are involved in implementing the Mission and how different streams of finance are being mobilised to support the scaling and deployment of solutions for reaching the Mission objectives: to protect and restore marine and freshwater ecosystems and biodiversity, boost coastal resilience, eliminate pollution, and make the blue economy climate-neutral and circular.

The Summit is centred around driving action for a sustainable ocean economy and leveraging the ocean as a key part of the global environmental, social and economic agenda.

A major global marine-science & ocean-technology fair + conference. Brings together scientists, industry, and policy actors to explore technologies, monitoring, marine observation, environmental protection, coastal resilience, and sustainable ocean practices. Excellent for networking, learning about new tools/tech, and understanding marine-tech trends.

The event gathers marine scientists, researchers and stakeholders to share recent research, discuss socio-ecological challenges and foster collaboration on marine science, conservation, and sustainable ocean research.

The conference 'Climate Neutral Blue Cities by 2030: Accelerating Local Change under the EU Cities and Ocean Missions- Η Λεμεσός στην Πορεία για την Κλιματική Ουδετερότητα' is organised by the Municipality of Limassol in the framework of the EU Mission for 100 Climate-Neutral and Smart Cities by 2030 and with the support of the EU Mission: Restore our Ocean and Waters. Limassol is taking a leading role in driving the green and digital transition towards sustainable, resilient, and inclusive urban development.
