Future prospects of marine environmental governance

Pradeep Singh, Aline Jaeckel

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

This chapter provides an outlook on the future of sustainable ocean governance with a particular focus on environmental protection. It identifies fragmentation, knowledge gaps, lack of international cooperation and coordination, as well as ineffective enforcement as some of the pressing challenges. These will likely increase both quantitatively and qualitatively in the future, as new and emerging ocean uses will be added to the list of stressors. This chapter discusses a number of options for the improvement of marine environmental governance into the future.
