Convenings, events, collaborations, new resources, practitioner insights, and notes from Big Ocean’s work across the field.
Big Ocean will present findings from the global survey of large-scale MPA managers, bringing managers’ perspectives on progress, priorities, and persistent challenges back into conversation with the field.
Big Ocean is moving into its next chapter with a new website and a transition to bigocean.global. Our email addresses are changing as part of the same move; updated contact information will be shared as the transition is completed.
Big Ocean and NOAA’s Marine Protected Areas Center co-hosted a two-day virtual learning exchange on the intersection of large-scale marine protected areas and national security. Managers, scientists, and partners explored how ocean health connects with food, economic, coastal, and national security—and what it takes to carry that evidence into budgets, policy, and durable management.
