The Greenwich Maritime Centre (GMC) in partnership with National Maritime and Royal Museums Greenwich is pleased to announce its third biennial conference titled Society and Sea 2020: The Values of the Ocean and Coasts for Sustainable Development to run 9 - 11 September 2020. The ocean is in crisis and solutions to the many challenges require collaboration and contribution from science, industry, governments and communities. This conference will bring together a diverse international audience to explore the importance of the ocean and how to achieve ocean sustainability.
We encourage broad multi-disciplinary / multi-sector engagement with contributions from diverse stakeholders including industry, government, NGOS, communities and academia (including for instance the arts and humanities, natural sciences and social sciences) to help understand the multiple ways our rivers, oceans and coasts are important for sustainable development.
The conference is supported by the Thames Estuary Partnership, Coastal Partnership Network and the Marine Social Science Network.
