 Policy brief no. 11 \| December 2025
 By Sebastian Seiffert

Societies around the world heavily depend on a healthy ocean for food security, climate regulation and recreational use, but ocean protection and governance often struggle to gain centre stage in international (and domestic) politics. SDG 14, “Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development”, has received the smallest part of funding among all 17 SDGs, and ocean topics have not been addressed in the past AU-EU summit in 2022. Luckily, this is now starting to change with the pioneering efforts of the Africa-Europe Strategy Group on Ocean Governance that was set up by the European Commission in partnership with the African Union Commission.
