UN Ocean Conference - Mediterranean Day Ministers' Declaration (Nice, France, 10/06/2025)
A Declaration of the Ministers of the Mediterranean was made on the ‘Mediterranean Day’ event of the United Nations Ocean Conference (Nice, France, 10/06/2025).
The declaration is actually a reaffirmation of the Ministers’ common commitment to protect and preserve the Mediterranean Sea, an invaluable common good.
The UNEP/MAP event was organised to commemorate 50 years of the UNEP Mediterranean Action Plan and 30 years since the post-Rio amendment of the Barcelona Convention.
The WES-BCA project is to strengthen and formulate the policies of the Barcelona Convention, hence the participation of our Team Leader Professor Michael Scoullos in the conference.
