Investing in Ocean Resilience: Riding the Wave of the High Seas Treaty 

The entry into force of the BBNJ Agreement (also known as the High Seas Treaty) marks a historic moment for global ocean governance, creating new momentum for the conservation and sustainable use of biodiversity beyond national jurisdiction. This keynote will explore what the Treaty means for Commonwealth countries, international cooperation, and the future of ocean resilience and sustainable development.

Alison Swaddling, Advisor, Ocean Governance

As governments, investors and businesses respond to the opportunities created by the High Seas Treaty, how can we accelerate investment in ocean resilience and build a sustainable blue economy? This panel discussion will bring together perspectives from ocean governance, biodiversity innovation and conservation finance to explore how science, policy and investment can work together to unlock scalable action for our shared ocean future.

We’re at a tipping point. Climate action now demands radical collaboration—across sectors, disciplines + geographies.  It’s time to connect nature, cities, innovation + finance in bold, regenerative ways.

Natural ecosystems + urban environments are deeply intertwined. To protect one, we must work across both. ​Across both streams, we’ll explore cross-cutting themes, critical enablers of systemic change within a shifting geo-political landscape.

This is the moment to forge unlikely alliances—between innovators, investors, enablers, policy makers, think tanks + academia.
