IOC (Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission)

The Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) is a part of UNESCO that coordinates international efforts to study and understand the world’s oceans. It brings together countries to share knowledge, data, and resources, aiming to improve ocean research, monitoring, and management. The IOC’s work helps address ocean-related challenges such as climate change, pollution, and marine biodiversity loss. By fostering collaboration among scientists, governments, and organizations, it ensures that efforts to protect and sustainably use ocean resources are informed and effective, benefiting the global community and future generations.
