We presented Ocean Rights at the UN in New York

The Ocean Race Summit was held on the 18th September 2023 at the UN headquarters during the 78th session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA 78) in New York. The event gathered heads of state, ministers, ocean advocates, indigenous voices, elite athletes, business leaders, youth and Hollywood actors to call for the ocean’s rights to be legally recognised. The Ocean Race Summit - Presenting Ocean Rights, organised in close collaboration with UNDP, the IUCN, Earth Law Center, the Government of Cabo Verde and 11th Hour Racing, culminates several years of work to develop principles for a Universal Declaration of Ocean Rights. Working towards a Universal Declaration of Ocean Rights is part of The Ocean Race’s multi-award winning ‘Racing with Purpose’ sustainability programme developed in collaboration with 11th Hour Racing, a Premier Partner of The Ocean Race.
