The Global Ocean Alliance (GOA) champions ambitious ocean action within the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), including the 30by30 ocean target and other targets in the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF).

The framework sets a global mission to halt and reverse biodiversity loss by 2030, and all parties to the CBD must now take domestic action to fully and effectively implement the GBF.

The GOA places a spotlight on ocean issues within the CBD and beyond, including to support the implementation of the GBF in the ocean with member countries.
