We are here at the opening of the @150_challenger conference, not to be confused with us, the @challenger_150 @UNOceanDecade Programme, although we are related. Our Programme is devoted to mapping life in the World's ocean. Learn more here x.com/challenger_150/status/…

Wondering what our #OceanDecade programme is all about? We are a global grass roots initiative, dedicated to mapping life in the deep ocean to inform sustainable development. Check out our 2min pitch. #UNOceanConference #UNOC2022 youtu.be/gBYkgVbE9l4
