IMPAC (International Marine Protected Areas Congress) is the world’s leading forum dedicated to marine protected areas. Co-organised by the IUCN (International Union for Conservation of Nature) and the host country, it brings together thousands of marine conservation professionals. The event combines scientific sessions, practical workshops, high-level forums and opportunities for discussion to inform, inspire and take action in support of ocean conservation. Each edition produces declarations and recommendations that influence marine conservation policies worldwide.
For IMPAC6, Senegal and the IUCN are joining forces to place the voice of Africa and coastal communities at the heart of the debates, with an ambitious programme centred on participatory governance and a sustainable blue economy.
This webinar will have simultaneous interpretation in English, French and Spanish. Another session is available in the morning at 9am CEST, should that timing be more convenient: IMPAC6: a global drive for a sustainable ocean and resilient MPAs - Morning session
