The third United Nations Ocean Decade Laboratory was held online from 17-19 November with researchers and key stakeholders offering insights on the Ocean Decade Outcome of ‘A Clean Ocean’. The event focused on mapping out the state of pollution in the ocean, finding ways to clean it up, and establishing sustainable ways to achieve the goal for ‘A Clean Ocean’ by 2030.

SKLMP’s Global Estuaries Monitoring (GEM) Programme was invited to present on the topic of marine chemical pollution, our proposed method to identify the pollutants in estuaries around the world, and our goal to develop best practices to combat pollution via international collaboration.
