Thank you to everyone who joined our 16 January webinar and to all who helped amplify the conversation your support truly matters.
On 17 January 2026, the High Seas Treaty (BBNJ Agreement) enters into force, marking a historic milestone for global ocean protection and international cooperation.
This achievement reflects decades of dedication, negotiation, and advocacy by governments, scientists, Indigenous Peoples, civil society, and ocean champions worldwide.
We celebrate this moment not only as a victory, but as a call to sustain momentum toward universal ratification and effective implementation for the ocean and for future generations.
