World Ocean Council Contributes to Corporate Ocean Data Exchange Workshop.

The World Ocean Council contributed to the 5th Scoping Workshop on “Corporate Data Exchange: mCDR / blue carbon”, organised through the Sustainable Blue Economy Partnership on 18 September. The workshop brought together stakeholders to explore opportunities, incentives and challenges around corporate data exchange in the marine Carbon Dioxide Removal (mCDR) and blue carbon sectors.

Jill Storey, Ocean CO₂ Removal Advisor at the World Ocean Council / AWOC Barcelona, participated in the workshop, sharing insights on corporate ocean data exchange and the role of data sharing in advancing mCDR.

The workshop forms part of a wider series examining corporate data exchange across blue economy sectors, including ocean energy, offshore wind, fisheries and aquaculture, blue technology, blue carbon and mCDR. The series explores how improved data sharing can support more effective collaboration and help address barriers to data exchange across the blue economy.

The Sustainable Blue Economy Partnership’s work on corporate data exchange also supports the development of a fit-for-purpose European Ocean Observing System, while contributing to policy recommendations for improved data governance in the context of OceanEye and identifying actionable pathways for the Partnership.
