OceanPrediction DCC Global Event 2026
About this event
The OceanPrediction DCC global event brings together the community working on ocean forecasting, from regional teams and scientists to early-career professionals, institutions and partners, to connect across regions, share advances and shape the future of ocean prediction. Sessions explore why ocean forecasting matters in different regional contexts and how it supports climate resilience, coastal safety, food security, ecosystem protection and sustainable ocean governance. The programme is designed by the ECOPs in each regional team, with one participatory session per region covering African seas, the Arctic, the West Pacific and marginal seas of South East Asia, the Mediterranean and Black Sea, South and Central America, the Indian seas, the North East Atlantic and North America. OceanPrediction DCC is a coordinating body under the UN Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development.
